Frank R. Paul was one of the leading science fiction artists of the twentieth century. Here is what Ray Bradbury had to say about him: “One glance at a Paul illustration can change your life forever. I was eight years old when I laid eyes on an illustration he did for A. Hyatt Verrill story about a world with giant ants. It made me want to be part of a world of imagination and within a few years I fell completely in love with science fiction– all from this one illustration.”

The magazine that inspired Ray was the Fall, 1928 issue of Amazing Stories Quarterly. To see Mr. Paul's great cover for that issue, click on the link below:
