Since 1941 Molino became the official cover-illustrator of La Domenica del Corriere, succeeding to Achille Beltrame. He also collaborated with the women's magazine Grand Hotel, as cover-illustrator and artist of "cineromanzi", i.e. comic stories, generally of romantic or melodramatic genre, whose comic characters resembled famous film actors.
