MY original tumblr post was here. This image is the cover of Future Fiction Vol 1 No 2, March 1940. Cover by J. W. Scott, so identified by its original poster Sci-Fi Covers. The Speculative Fiction Database entry for this issue is here. The image comes to us via twofistedpulp.
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.
A re-creation by another newcomer to Erotic Mad Science, Studio Ambobus.

The cover of Uncanny Tales (November 1939), done by J.W. Scott. This cover was researched by Bacchus and there is a discussion where I first blogged about it in the post “Δ 061 – Alien Experimenters” at Infernal Wonders.
Studio Ambobus describes its activities as creating “covers for pulp magazines that never existed… but should have!” It has a tumblr called “Naughty Pulps.”
