There's a bigger version of this over on the Taormina blog where you can see the cover in better detail.
I did some searching around for covers from mass market paperbacks to help with this, I hope I've struck the right balance.

Taormina Pulp Fiction
I decided to have some fun with a spoof, pulp-fiction paperback cover to an imaginary spin-off book.

I love it, especially the tatty look, it looks just the part, x
I would say that you definitely hit the right marks with this one, Kev. Great job on the art, NO, I mean really great job on the cover art.
Now, I want to read this paperback.
The retro feel is perfect Kev...spot on! This really adds value to your 'main feature'. I think the limited palette is particularly effective. Was there a range of Taormina plup paperbacks published way back in the 30's??? Hope so!
WOW!!! You really hit the nail on the head...what a perfectly classic feel to this!!!
