Description

I am assuming that this is the cover to a paperback, but I have no proof of that. I only guess that as Wilson seemed to sign his paperback work... not always his covers for Dell/Gold Key. Regardless, an interesting inage capturing a partying actress who ends up dead.

Hello Wallace:

That signature is hard to find!

It is a strange piece, as if the background characters were added onto the painting and they don't look like something Mr. Wilson would have done.

Just wondered about your thoughts on this. A wonderful piece and the woman is top-notch Wilson at his best.

Sincerely,

Ashley Batchelor

Hello,
It was done for the cover of the book "The Beautiful Dead" by Hugh Pentecost.
