The Blue Flamingo – Startling Stories Jan 1948 Hannes Bok Cover
A statuesque enchantress in a form-fitting golden-to-green gown stands atop an amber-lit ziggurat staircase, one hand resting near the head of a towering blue flamingo beside her. Swirling crimson and violet storm clouds frame the scene, lending an air of theatrical menace. Her jeweled headdress and imperious gaze evoke pulp fantasy glamour, illustrating Hannes Bok's own novel 'The Blue Flamingo' for this 1948 Startling Stories cover.
She commands giant blue flamingos and living serpents from atop a burning ziggurat — and she's not even breaking a sweat. Buy this magazine or she sends the snake after you.
