    Wild subject - and looks like half-photo-half-art
  2. Surfing Alien
    Sweet find - I never see these at flea markets anymore. I don't think Perelandra is common but you do see a lot of pics because it's so collected & cool
  3. Surfing Alien
    One of the most Bizarre Space Robot covers i've ever seen... "Inner Cosmos" by Vargo Statten...

    Sweet copy... Marty, are these paperbacks you bought when they came out? or shortly thereafter? Guys my generation love the fact that paperbacks were the internet of the 20th century = inexpensive, widespread knowledge & entertainment

    Here is the best (IMHO) British Sci Fi cover ever - "The G-Bomb" Incredible mushroom cloud graphic - great draftsmanship and composition

    Here's some more Dell fun... #433 King Solomon's Mines movie edition with Deborah Kerr & Stewart Granger...
  7. Surfing Alien
    Sweet - welcome

    Some wild British-ness. Post-nuclear age alarm-ism. I really love Glama, who was on the back cover of countless British Sci-Fi titles

    awesome... nobody cares about anything rare in these here parts but this is rare for sure...

    Awesome Pulp! Kind of funny how in 25 years the cover subject went from a cowering dude in a dress and funny helmet to a Buxom Blonde and Mr. America in a banana hammock

    Then, before you know it, you're collecting Bantams
  12. Surfing Alien
    So then you have the Dell "bug" to deal with
  13. Surfing Alien
    Then you start seeing cool Dells and it's like "hmmm, i'll look out for those too..."

    Actual "Tough Kid From Brooklyn"

    I too first got hooked with Avons - Tough Kids from Brooklyn are a weakness of mine

    Nice copy, never saw this one before - you've got excellent taste in JD!
  17. Surfing Alien
    I need me a copy of this one!
  18. Surfing Alien
    Paperbacks are relatively worthless... but I like this one... the true first... i'm post-crossing it from the Peanuts GA forum just because its worthless there too

    This here is one of the rarest of the rare - but it's in a bit of a limbo land between the comic books and paperbacks and there is very little info out there about the true first printing. It was reprinted dozens of times with various changes in cover details but you don't see the first correctly identified.

    I'm honored to be the custodian of this very fresh copy He was a big influence on my skepticism about everything in adulthood

    RIP Harlan Ellison... JD....
  22. Surfing Alien
    Definitely has that !!! look - cover is actually by Julian Paul per Warren's paperback guide http://www.askart.com/artist/Julian_Paul/101959/Julian_Paul.aspx It appears that he did quite a few paperback and digest covers.
  23. Surfing Alien
    The blurbs... and the titles... are awesome
  24. Surfing Alien
    Another one of the many suggestive Avon covers (and titles!) that also appeared in their comics. This cover is the same as the comic book Romantic Love #7

    Wow... I had no idea Stanley Meltzoff was an American Icon ... what a career! Many Signet covers including most of the Iconic Heinlein Sci-Fi covers... and of course... the Fish!!! http://www.silverfishpress.com/Book+Covers/id/40/
