From the Age of Aces website: Frederick Blakeslee created "cover art for most of the aviation pulp titles: Battle Aces, Battle Birds, Dare-Devil Aces, Fighting Aces, Flyers, G-8 And His Battle Aces, Submarine Stories, War Aces, and War Birds. He was widely considered among the best of his peers — Frank Tinsley, Rudolph Belarski, George Gross, James B. Settles, Charles Dameron, Eugene M. Frandzen, and the brothers August & Alex Schomburg. In addition to his paintings for cover assignments, Blakeslee drew over one thousand black and white interior story illustrations." From Pulpartists.com: Blakeslee became a leader in the field of aviation pulps, as well as a top cover artist for railroad pulps. He was also a top pen & ink man, who drew over one thousand interior black and white story illustrations for Popular Publications, his primary publisher. Blakeslee painted 423 pulp covers — 306 of those appeared on every issue of Battle Birds, Captain Combat, Dare-Devil Aces, Dusty Ayres and His Battle Birds, and G-8 and His Battle Aces, which was an amazing feat that no other pulp artist can claim.
