Argosy Weekly 'Claimed' by Francis Stevens — Neptune Rides the Waves, March 1920
A wild-bearded sea god — unmistakably Neptune or Poseidon — surges from a churning ocean atop a rearing white sea-horse, trident raised against a blazing orange sun. Emerald seaweed crowns his head and drapes his powerful form as foam-crested waves crash around him. This dynamic cover illustrates Francis Stevens's fantasy serial 'Claimed,' a tale of ancient ocean deities and supernatural vengeance, rendered with theatrical energy and vivid chromolithographic color.
