I hate to admit that I'm not as heavily stocked on Flessel covers as I'd like, but here's another fave

[Sqeggs]

Nice copies of two tough books!

Just saw this one in one of my old Sotheby's catalogs. (Edgar Church copy.) This is the coolest Flessel cover I've seen yet!

 

Here 'tis again 12 years later (un-cropped scan & accurate color)...

Particularly hard not to love that copy of that cover! 

[Frisco Larson]

This threads needs a bump! I've posted this elsewhere, but it fits here too. 

[Frisco Larson]

A favorite cover and an all around awesome book! Not the best pic but I'm still half asleep so

Rumor has it that pre-hero DC's are dead.

RHG, I've been wondering if this cover had been confirmed as a Flessel? No copy I've seen appears to be signed (the signatures DO get cut off sometimes). With the discovery of John Richard Flannagan as a previously unknown cover artist who didn't sign his work, do you think this might also be one of his? Anyone else with an opinion on this, please feel free to chime in.

I may be alone on this, but sometimes I buy books that are well below the grade range I want them in, just to get ANY copy. As a testament to Flessel's fantastic cover, it seems as though someone really wanted to either keep or do something with the cover of my copy! Oddly, the back cover is fully attached at the staples and the book is in really nice condition, beyond missing most of the front cover that is. The repro helps me remember what the cover is supposed to look like. It's only a reader ….

I guess this could be considered a tribute.
