Marvel Science Stories, April-May 1939
Voting period ends on 10 Feb 2015  at 11:30:32 (UTC)
 * Reason:A fine, rare example of Sci-fi art from an ephemeral magazine. Given that my copy's falling apart, I'm not that surprised they're rare. It still shows some signs of age, but is much more usable. Compare with the original scan, File:Norman Saunders - cover of Marvel Science Stories for April-May 1939 - original.tif. That scan came out very light (the colours are more accurate here) but shows the damage... There's a column describing the cover, a "beauty parlor of the future" or a "Mechanical Fountain of Youth" to give the title of the column about it.
 * Articles in which this image appears:''Marvel Science Stories, Norman Saunders (just added to the latter)
 * FP category for this image:Featured_pictures/Artwork/Literary_illustrations presumably?
 * Creator:Norman Saunders, restoration by Adam Cuerden

 * Comment. I rarely visit FPC and have little technical expertise, so I'm hesitant about supporting this.  However, since sf magazines are one of my areas of expertise, and this picture illustrates an article I took to FAC, I'd like to say that from my point of view this is a very high quality image and has strong encyclopedic value.  Many of these old magazines are rare and hard to find in good condition, and an image showing readers what a magazine buyer in 1939 would have seen as they walked up to the newsstand is very valuable.
