@yerald@social.coop @bookstodon@a.gup.pe How old are we talking? Classic SF covers from the 60s and 70s? The video game No Man's Sky's entire look is based on this covers. And I love the way they always create a sense of action-filled wonder. I don't think you could ever go wrong with a Michael Whelan painted cover. He was a foundational visionary in SF&F covers for so long

@yerald@social.coop Are people seriously hating on golden age sci-fi and fantasy covers? They're miles better than most covers today.

@yerald@social.coop @bookstodon@a.gup.pe #pulp #SciFi #sciencefiction I love them. I have a large #Calibre library full of old ScIFi, Fantasy and Pulp Mystery, and I collect the covers as well as the books. Often have several alt covers on a pulp book or magazine story. Here is a favourite.

@yerald@social.coop @bookstodon@a.gup.pe I've always judged a book by its cover. This retro cover for an upcoming collection is just my cup of tea. It is inspired by Sanjulian's classic book covers from the '70s. The artist is Robert Sammelin

@yerald@social.coop @bookstodon@a.gup.pe Some of my favorites are the original Don Maitz covers for the individual titles in Gene Wolfe's Book of the New Sun.
