Tumblr favorite #1900: Snake girl from the Cave City
My original tumblr post was here. This image was researched by Bacchus at ErosBlog as part of the “Δ commission.” The research was originally published at Hedonix as “Δ 071 – Cave Girl, Serpent Undies.” Here is what Bacchus found.
According to this web page, the artwork above is by Robert Gibson Jones and it appeared on the cover of the September 1945 issue of Amazing Stories:
The artist’s signature is partly visible lower right in the image. Robert Gibson Jones was a prolific pulp artist of the 1940s and 1950s. A bibliography of his many science fiction magazine covers and interior illustrations is here.
Tumblr favorite #1891: Alien experimenters
My original tumblr post was here. Attentive readers of Erotic Mad Science will note that this particular illustration has also been the subject of a pulp art recreation. This image was researched by Bacchus at ErosBlog as part of the “Δ commission.” The research was originally published at Hedonix as “Δ 061 – Alien Experimenters.” Here is what Bacchus found.
This artwork is cropped and photoshopped from the cover of the November 1939 issue of Uncanny Tales magazine:
PulpArtists.com credits the art on this cover to J. W. Scott, a prolific pulp artist and magazine illustrator from Camden, New Jersey.
Tumblr favorite #1867: Gill-man back from the war
My original tumblr post was here. This image was researched by Bacchus at ErosBlog as part of the “Δ commission.” The research was originally published at Hedonix as “Δ 035 Gill-Man Back From The War.” Here is what Bacchus found.
This image is a photoshopped alteration of the famous photograph from the end of World War II that was called V-J Day in Times Square, by photographer Alfred Eisenstaedt for Life magazine. The distinctive scales on the arms and the fringed ruff at the back of the neck identify the ‘shopped-in monster as the Gill-man creature in the 1954 movie The Creature From The Black Lagoon.
Here is the image from which the kissing Gill-man portion of the collage was taken:
This would certainly appear to be a photo of behind-the-scenes shenanigans from the making of Creature. A blog post at the Film Noir Photos blog is in accord, offering additional light-hearted images of the Gill-man dancing and mopping, and captioning a version of this photo “The Gill Man steals a kiss from an unsuspecting (but apparently unresisting) stunt woman.” It seems likely enough. (There is however one blog post that suggests without explanation that the image is actually from the production of the sequel Revenge Of The Creature.)
No information about the artist who photoshopped these two photographs together could be discovered.
Tumblr favorite #1866: Space hydra
My original tumblr post was here. This image was researched by Bacchus at ErosBlog as part of the “Δ commission.” The research was originally published at Hedonix as Δ 034 One-Headed Space Hydra.” Here is what Bacchus found.
This artwork is cropped from the cover of Planet Comics #42 from May, 1946:
A gallery of additional Planet Comics covers is here. According to Wikipedia, all but three of the Planet Comics covers after issue #25 were drawn by Joe Doolin. It thus seems likely that Doolin was the cover artist for this issue #42. The ComicVine entry is in accord.

Original post here. This image was researched by Bacchus at ErosBlog as part of the “Γ commission.” The research was originally published at Hedonix as “Γ 032 – Aliens Need Teen Girls. Here is what Bacchus found.
This is a poster for Night Caller From Outer Space, a movie which (according to Wikipedia) was also released as The Night Caller and Blood Beast From Outer Space. This 1965 British movie is based on the novel The Night Callers by Frank Crisp. The plot features aliens from Ganymede who kidnap teen Earth girls for breeding purposes. There’s a detailed and sympathetic review of the movie here that offers comparative information on the different available DVD versions. Horrorpedia offers additional information, and another review here offers this view of the magazine the aliens placed bogus modeling ads in to lure the girls to their alien breeding doom:
Here’s a larger view of the similar artwork on the poster for the “Blood Beast” version, at least one of which is available for sale:
