In the previous post I showed how Marc Davis made good use of Émile Grillot de Givry's Illustrated Anthology of Sorcery, Magic, and Alchemy. He wasn't the only one. I also mentioned Rolly Crump, who evidently rifled through de Givry for images to use in his "Museum of the Weird." Here are a couple of examples from one of Rolly's well-known "Museum of the Weird" concept sketches:
And here y'go, darlin', or as Émile would put it, Voilà.
Here's another example, taken from a different sketch of the Museum. Rolly borrowed an old palmistry chart in de Givry.
