I originally blogged this in a post “Lights, Camera, Peril” at Infernal Wonders, but that post lacked much in the way of provenance. A little subsequence Internet research shows that the source of the illustration is the April 1936 cover of Saucy Movie Tales by the prolific American pulp artist Norman Saunders (1907-1989). This appears to be the unredacted cover:
