Weird Tales Magazine began in March 1923. In 1924 Farnsworth Wright assumed editorship and under his direction it grew into the greatest fantasy magazine ever published. It was the first venue for many of the classical "greats" of the genre. Writers such as Robert Bloch, Seabury Quinn, H.P Lovecraft, Clark Ashton Smith, C. L. Moore and Robert E. Howard (famous for his "Conan" stories) all contributed to Weird tales. In 1932, at the height of the depression, an "out of work", Chicago based agency artist and fashion designer named Margaret Brundage became the cover artist for Weird Tales. Thus began the career of possibly the most famous female artist in the fantasy field. Her sensuous nude or nearly nude women graced the magazines covers from then until 1938 when the magazine moved to New York under a different editorship. During the middle nineteen thirties there was a continuing debate over the use of nudes on the covers. Many readers argued that it did not accurately reflect the content of the magazine and the arguments reached a peak in September of 1933 when the cover pictured two nearly nude women in a whipping scene. Many of weird Tales readers expressed their outrage and Farnsworth reacted by having much more demure pictures on the covers of the next two months issues. The protests from fans who enjoyed the nude pictures was even louder and quite simply "naked ladies" sold more magazines, so W.T. returned to the earlier standard of having naked women on the covers.

 

Our Stretched Canvas Option

When you purchase a stretched canvas from 45th Street Editions you will be getting a completed canvas with colored border, stretched, finished with a wire on the back, and ready to hang on your wall.

Our Flat Canvas Option. When you purchase a flat canvas you will get just the image with not much extra canvas surrounding the image. This option is good for collectors who just want a document of the cleaned image on canvas. The Flat Canvas is suitable for framing but will probably need a matte and glass to finish a framed presentation.

Our Un-Stretched Option -- When you purchase an un-stretched print from 45th Street Editions you will get your image and a colored border surrounding the image. This colored border will enhance the image when it is stretched onto stretcher bars and will be seen on the edge in order to accent the printed image.

Our Stretched Canvas Option -- When you purchase a stretched canvas from 45th Street Editions you will be getting a completed canvas with colored border stretched, finished with a wire on the back, and ready to hang on your wall. If your not into the hassle of finding a framer to stretch your or canvas or the cost of framing, which could run as much as your canvas, then this is the option for you. (note: Shipping could be higher on this option since we box these for guerrilla warfare and they are larger and more fragile.)
