Salacious Assortment of Unsavoriness.



No particular rhyme or reason here today, just wanted to share some favorite filth.  Next I'll dedicate an entire post to Bill Ward's (above cover artist) absolutely superb illustrations from ISLAND OF DOMINATION, a book that was released when Ward was doing great work for CRACKED MAGAZINE.  There seems to be a similarity to Nanny Dickering in there ...  


A popular Eric Stanton cover, and rightfully so.  His typical sexiness is amplified here by a strong sense of strange mystery, and for a single image it's especially dream-like.  Below is another excellent Bill Ward cover.




Below we have a few select covers from publishers Derby, Liverpool, Dover, and Midwood.  Midwood was around for years, but at this point they seem to have possibly been inspired by Olympia Press's signature graphic design.  Possibly.
