Dan Zimmer, Editor. The Illustrated Press, 2010. In this special issue Dan Zimmer hosts a tribute to a long time favourite pulp artist Hugh J. Ward who is given an excellent in depth biography by the ever reliable David Saunders. Saunders has gathered the collection of H. J. Ward original art, rare photographs and mint copies of printer's proofs to illustrate this biography that contains contributions from the artist's family. Ward was known for his lurid, violent and sexy covers for a whole host of western pulps and perhaps most notoriously for several of the highly collected “Spicy” titles featuring assorted alluring damsels in distress and stages of undress. Again - a must for fans of hard-boiled pop culture.
