Purpose of use

Illustrates some of the cliches of sf covers of the era. Specifically the brass bra (see Ashley, History of the Science Fiction Magazine: Vol. 2, opposite p. 153); and "a rugged hero, a desperate heroine (in either a metallic bikini or a dangerous state of déshabillé) and a hideous alien menace" (quoted from Malcolm Edwards, "Startling Stories", in Clute & Nicholls, Encyclopedia of Science Fiction, p. 1156).

Replaceable?

All of the magazines covers are in copyright so there are no free covers to replace this with.
