Leo Morey (attributed) - SF Pulp Illustration Original Art (undated).
<B>Leo Morey (attributed) - SF Pulp Illustration Original Art (undated).</B></I> Many hallmarks of early pulp science fiction are found in this offbeat ink illustration from an unknown issue. A bug-eyed monster hovers threateningly over a bound, naked "good girl," as she is laid out for an extra-close examination in an alien spacecraft. Her handsome rescuer is clad in a snappy spacesuit, and he fires a devastating high-energy beam from his raygun. What more could you want? Leo Morey was often compared to visionary <B>Amazing</B></I> cover artist Frank Paul, and Morey did many illustrations for the SF pulps, including such titles as <B>Astonishing Super Stories</B></I>, <B>Thrilling Wonder Stories</B></I>, <B>Satellite Science Fiction</B></I>, and his main account, <B>Amazing</B></I>. The image size is approximately 9.5" x 15". The art is in Excellent condition and has been signed at the lower left. <BR><BR><B>Important notice:</B> Heritage usually auctions material at the rate of 200-250 lots per hour. On some occasions eBay Live bid software or the Internet may not be able to keep up with the pace of the auction. We recommend placing a realistic absentee bid now as insurance to avoid disappointment. Occasionally the auctioneer may eliminate or reject an eBay Live bid, and the auctioneer may also reopen a lot after the close of the eBay live bidding (usually because we missed an audience bid), and may reject your bid even if it shows you as the winning bidder. By bidding via eBay Live, you agree that Heritage may award the lot to another bidder at its sole discretion under the circumstances described above or any other reasonable circumstances. Since eBay bids are not shown to us until we open the lot on the floor, we treat those bids just like floor bids. In most cases the floor responds before the eBay bid is presented to us, due to Internet lag time, so for consistency we have made it a policy that floor bids are always considered first over tie eBay live bids. Also please note that all Heritage lots purchased through eBay Live carry a 20% Buyer's Premium. Please make sure you read the Terms and Conditions before you bid.
