It is an oversized book on excellent paper with a paper dj as well as an imprinted image on front board book. Great production qualities by The Illustrated Press. Mostly full size repro of 7 Lone Ranger pulp covers. Hundreds of high definition glossy cover photos(sized to be appreciated at 4 per large book size page) of Spicy Mystery, Spicy Detective, Spicy Adventure, Private Detective, Speed Adventure, Spicy Western, Super Detective, etc. The pulp covers look as though they came from a just-purchased-off-the-newstand collection. Quite a few pages with blown-up(or zoomed in)detail art from the actual oil paintings which led to the magazine covers. A bibliography of Ward/s pulp art is here. Quite a few repros from the actual paintings themselves. A must have for risque art or damsel in distress popular art. Saunders points out that many of the damsels in Ward's paintings do not have a rescuer in sight and likely are going to have to depend on their wiles to escape rape/murder/kidnapping. Also his work on Lone Ranger, Green Hornet, Superman. He died at an early age of 36 during WW 2 of lung cancer. Good family background/photos also. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Lots of Beautiful Full color plates *by 4***R on Reviewed in the United States on September 13, 2016* Lots of Beautiful Full color plates, However I felt there was way too much text for an art book, FAR too much detail and exposition , Also too many supplemental and B&W progressive pieces,, I believe the book could have supported at least 20 more full page illos. had these elements been condensed, Overall well worth it and a fantastic book, But hopefully In the future we will see another volume with only full page illos and minimal text ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fascinating Story of a Great Artist ... ... *by J***. on Reviewed in the United States on June 9, 2012* This book is a real dream come true. High quality binding. Full color throughout, printed on high quality paper. One of the most fascinating chapters of this book is the story behind H.J. Ward's 1940 painting of Superman. This chapter reveals the artistic influences and the actual person who posed as the Man of Steel for this iconic painting. The story is all here. There is also a couple of very nice chapters that covers The Lone Ranger and The Green Hornet. Including, aside from the magazine covers, some promotional and product advertisement art. Truly beautiful art abounds on nearly every page of this book. Detective, adventure, and even some spicy magazine cover art, it's all here. David Saunders writes a very informative and entertaining story of a great artist who left us too, too early. The late, great Hugh Joseph Ward. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.sa/products/1563066-h-j-ward](https://www.desertcart.com.sa/products/1563066-h-j-ward) --- *Product available on Desertcart Saudi Arabia* *Store origin: SA* *Last updated: 2026-05-08*
