Whisper v03n07 (1950-05.Whisper) cover Peter Driben (Darwin Edit)
Peter Driben, 1950
Spurred by a couple of recent cover restores, I've made a gallery for Robert Harrison magazines and uploaded an old scan of Whisper to the Internet Archive. I touched up the cover a bit (most scanners dislike looking at old work) but left the rest of the magazine as is. And what a fun magazine Whisper is. Far from pure cheesecake (not that there's anything wrong with that), there's true crime and tips on how to avoid various varieties of con artists, bits of science fact and fiction, items of geographical interest, and more. A vivacious read - I need to put some more Harrison mags in the ol' scanpile for certain. While none of the other Harrison mags had quite the societal impact as Confidential, they still held an important if forgotten place in the media landscape.
