Why does that last one remind me of Rocky & Bullwinkle?

That last one by Murray Tinkelman has the great flavor of its day. His other work is very strong and varied -- some like that one, some highly realistic and precise, some freaktastical. Powerful illustrator with a long career and powerful rep.

These are great--the first pic looks like she has a bunch of crumpled paper on her hat.

I love me some Murray Tinkelman work. My brother has an entire set of H.P. Lovecraft books with his covers, which I DON'T ENVY AT ALL.
