| Stanley L. Wood (1866–1928) created the striking cover label for Guy Boothby’s Farewell Nikola (1901). | John Esrkine, The Private Life of Helen of Troy, New York: Popular Library No.147, 1948; cover illustration by Earle K. Bergey (1901–52). Known for obvious reasons as the ‘nipple cover’, Bergey did for the cover picture what Popular Library’s copywriter did for the accompanying blurb: “A gay, witty novel about a lovely woman to whom men first lost their heart, then their heads, and finally their lives!” |
