Collier's: The Green Angel (1939)

In 1939, Timmins illustrated the ten-installment serial The Green Angel, which was written by George F. Worts.  Harry’s series of illustrations for The Green Angel represent my favorite body of his story illustrations for a serial.  Timmins employs a style that is glamourous and, at times, slightly pulpy.  Three of the illustrations received full-color treatment, which reflects both the caliber of the work and the improved economics of the late 1930’s.  The two-color and black-and-white illustrations are equally fabulous, and convey the story’s suspense and tension.  Illustrations for all ten installments are presented below.  Story text has been removed for a cleaner appearance.
