Looking for something a bit retro and a bit different to be inspired by this Christmas? Then it's definitely worth checking our
Froggyboggler's flickr set,
Merry Xmas.
I found this
Galaxy Science Fiction magazine cover from 1951 seriously strange, particularly the alien sitting at Santa's table gazing wistfully at the big man in red. I think it's true love.
There are a series of pulp fiction covers in the set called
A Corpse for Christmas and various
Astounding Science Fiction covers worth checking out too, along with more traditional mid-century Christmas imagery.
