HUGH JOSEPH WARD (1909–1945) painted many of the most sensational and iconic pulp covers ever published, yet the man remained a mystery after his death from cancer at 35. This book tells his story: his family roots, art training, early career as a newspaper cartoonist, his working methods, and his surprising contributions to the earliest images of The Lone Ranger, The Green Hornet and Superman. It includes over 500 illustrations, more than 75 from original cover paintings, plus working drawings, reference and family photos, and a complete checklist of his pulp covers.
By David Saunders. 272 pages, 9x12 inches, hardcover with dust jacket, no shrink-wrap. Fine+ condition.
