DAD: Pulp Fiction Style Book Covers

Ah, pulp fiction: Those lurid covers. The bigger than life heroes. The strange and mysterious villains. Those scantily clad women in various stages of undress and distress.

For this swap, we are going to work up a lurid pulp fiction styled book cover in the form of a card or postcard. Here’s the process:

• Find a real book—any book whose title complements the style of pulp fiction.

• Create your own cover.

• Mount your image on a card/postcard or get it printed from sites like Zazzle.

• Post your image to our Flickr group.

Since this is sender’s choice, there is no need to look at your partner’s profile—you can get started on this right away.
