Vintage Book Covers: Wicked Women
Let’s kick off this theme week with some “sinners,” shall we?
Careful, Melvin…
I’m assuming she’s impatient because she hates getting caught in traffic during rush hour.
The worst? Of all? Really?
It happens.
Spell casting was never so sexy…
The greatest thing about this is the repetition of the word.
There are hundreds, perhaps thousands of vintage pulp covers featuring “wicked” woman but those are easy to find with a simple search. It’s gems like THIS that don’t come along every day.
But since I’m a good girl, I’ll end this post on a moral note.

Hey, what’s that lady doing with her vacuum cleaner?

I don’t know…but it looks painful.

Crazy to think the older ladies of today read such smut!

Every age seems to have its own smut.

Saucy! Nothing sucks, like Electrolux!

Haha! Fritz, when you inevitably find the Electrolux stored somewhere in the house (yes, we have one)…just know I haven’t used it for the purposes implied in certain retro books for housewives.

That is an excellent insult.

These are fantastic! “The say the harlots ran wild…” unbelievable.

It’s amazing how many “wicked women” vintage books exist. It must have been a thriving market. I guess every age has its own version of the wicked woman thing for sale.
