Science Wonder Stories, Vol. 1, No. 4 (September 1929)
The September 1929 issue of Science Wonder Stories, the pulp monthly Hugo Gernsback launched in New York for readers of scientific romance, priced at 25 cents. Frank R. Paul's cover paints a giant red mechanical insect over a termite mound in flat saturated color, while the interior story heading for David H. Keller's "The Human Termites" is stipple-and-line pen work with hand-lettered display type — useful for retro-futurist machinery, insect forms, and pulp title lettering.
