Weird Tales September 1937 – Satan's Palimpsest Cover by Brundage
Illustrating Seabury Quinn's 'Satan's Palimpsest — an eery tale of sinister doom,' this cover depicts a seminude blonde woman kneeling in rapt fascination before a gothic triptych mirror or reliquary, within which a horned devil figure looms alongside cherubic forms. The image captures the seductive dread central to Quinn's supernatural fiction, blending diabolism with feminine vulnerability in the charged visual language that made Weird Tales the premier pulp horror magazine of its era.
Hell hath no fury like a Brundage cover — where diabolism meets desire and Satan himself is just a mirror away. The 'No. 1 Magazine of Strange and Unusual Stories' delivers exactly that.
