Two covers from the mid-1960, with cover paintings by Frank Frazetta.
Issue #15 was the first copy of Creepy that I ever bought. I collected all the earlier ones & kept going with them until the early 1980s. Still have all those issues.
These 50s images are so optimistic with their visions of the future. Wondrous stories of Humankind exploring the universe. Now we're resigned to just surviving the inevitable dystopia. Great thread Wadcorp.

It just gives me the vibe of a pulp cov.
