eMail if there is a problem with fitting your DJ. I'll pre-fit it on my book just to be as sure as possible

Tarzan's Quest - J. Allen St. John cover illustration, 1936.
Over the years this original has faded almost to an overall monochrome. Most
pulp illustrations had little or no importance after the picture was used, and
therefore were not cared for in a way that might preserve the artwork in good
condition.
I downloaded it from another website and placed it on this page when I began this
website. In early July 2010, I started tinkering with the colors, adding and
enhancing, to hopefully bring the picture back to the colorful St. John composition
that we see on dust jackets for this book. Oddly enough, the mylar that protects
many dust jackets has over the years served to protect this picture's color scheme
better than the original which was exposed to the elements. So I used a facsimile
dust jacket that I had purchased online to guide the color restoration, but as often
is the case, I simply had to make an educated guess about some parts of the
painting. I hope St. John would have approved of the end result.
