The term pulp fiction that can also refer to mass market
paperbacks since the 1950s Comes from the cheap wood pulp paper on which such magazines
were printed. Pulps were the successor to the "penny dreadfuls", "dime
novels", and short fiction magazines of the nineteenth century.
Pulp covers, printed in color on higher-quality paper, were
famous for their half-dressed damsels in distress, usually
awaiting a rescuing hero.
Later pulps began to feature a few interior illustrations,
depicting elements of the stories.
