Pulp Art Gallery - H. W. McCauley

Bon 1913 in Chicago.

Covered several genres- Science fiction magazines, sleazy paperbacks, & comercial art for defense contractors. He was a staff artist for Ziff-Davis publications. In the 1950s he created advertising art for Coca-Cola, Pepsi, Orange Kist, and Schlitz Beer. He also painted pin-ups and calendar art.  In the early 1960s he worked for an erotic paperback publisher, Nightstand Library, in Evanston, IL.
