Reply #17: The artist who drew this was the great Frank R. Paul

You can see his distinctive signature in the lower right-hand corner. Paul became the leading illustrator for Amazing Stories when it was founded in 1926 and set his stamp on the science fiction art of the next decade. His more Art Deco-styled futuristic cities from the 1930's have been particularly influential. (Think Futurama, for example.)
