In the future…clothing will be scarce

The “strange tale of the future” Margaret Brundage was illustrating for this May 1938 issue of Weird Tales appears to be Seabury Quinn’s “Goetterdaemmerung.” (In 1938 umlauts were scarce, apparently.) Virgil Finlay did a lot of interior work on this issue, including this illustration for the title story:

“What nameless horror sat enthroned upon a face that must be hidden from the eyes of men?”

Finaly also illustrated what looks to my eyes like a bit of the old ultraviolence about to happen for Edmond Hamilton’s “The Isle of the Sleeper.”

“Three of the beast-men had left him and seized the girl.”
