The bomb and the fall of Babylon.
American author Pat Frank’s novel of nuclear aftermath, Alas, Babylon, appeared in 1959, with this Spanish edition entitled Ay, Babilonia following in 1965. The sexed-up cover was by painted by Sholler—no first name known. It seems to have been one of his only contributions to mid-century paperback art, but a nice contribution it is.
