Edward Daniel Cartier passed away yesterday, Christmas Day.
Edd was one of the all-time greatest pulp illustrators, legendary for his
whimsical work on John W. Campbell's UNKNOWN and ASTOUNDING SCIENCE FICTION
and 800 illustrations for THE SHADOW MAGAZINE. He also drew stories for
Street & Smith's RED DRAGON and SUPER-MAGICIAN COMICS.
The favorite artist of ASTOUNDING editor John W. Campbell and writer L. Ron
Hubbard, Cartier also illustrated the beloved Hoka tales by Poul Anderson
and Gordon R. Dickson, and stories by John D. MacDonald, Isaac Asimov, Henry
Kuttner, L. Sprague de Camp, Clifford D. Simak, Walter B. Gibson, Lester
Dent and many others.
