Just a bit more Harold McCauley pulp illustration. Boy are we going to be sorry when oxygen tanks gain sentience.
This painting graced the cover of the January 1956 issue of Imaginative Tales.
Both versions of the illustration are courtesy of this post at Pulp Covers. The entire issue can be downloaded from or read at the Internet Archive. It’s pretty pulpy: I counted I think four interior illustrations of helpless dames needing rescue from manly sci-fi heroes. But at least one illustration, sadly uncredited, does seem very Erotic Mad Science:
It illustrates a story by Richard O. Lewis, “Practical Joke.” The promo copy:
Hypnotapes were a proven boon to industry, where difficult problems could be experienced and solved vicariously. But to marriage — sheer chaos!
Well all righty then!

Redpulp has been at this for a long time. From 2012:

The illustration’s presentation page contain’s Redpulp’s narrative explanation:
The Aliens found a particularly fertile encampment of humans in what was called a “Uni-versity” before the bombardment. After subduing any resistance, the females are placed into sterile canisters for transport to the alien breeding centers…
And just recently, a return to theme:

And the narrative:
Monique had only volunteered to be his Lab Assistant to bring up her abysmal grade. As it turns out – skipping 3 lectures and blowing the final WASN’T the way to pass an advanced science class, who knew?
Now she was paying the price, Summer had just started! Her friends were all partying on a beach in Miami while she was stuck here listening to her Professor drone on about whatever boring-ass science crap he was excited about. She took another sip of the bizarre Tea concoction he had given her, maybe the caffeine would keep her awake as he chattered on. Strangely though – it seemed to be having the opposite effect…
When she woke next, Monique found her circumstances much more INTERESTING…
Word to the wise: if a mad scientist offers you tea and you’re the sort who can ignore whether your space-costume makes sense or not, don’t accept it,, unless you really up for something, uh, “interesting.” Like intimate involvement the production of Monique-flavored seltzer, or whatever else is going on here.
You can and should visit Redpulp’s DeviantArt site. Long may he illustrate!
