Hi, I'm a long-time SF reader and collector (2500+ items). Part of my collection consists of Dutch translations.
You can find some of my cover scans at Flickr.com.
I'm currently spending most of my time here adding cover artists to publications.
Much remains to be done in this area.
I've got a few dozen sf art books to aid me, starting with:
- Patrick Woodroffe - Mythopoeikon
- Peter Jones - Solar Wind
See also SF art book tag.
Working list of external sites:
- Colin Hay
- Tony Roberts
