Revision as of 08:16, 13 July 2016

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. Feel free to copy them (resized to 600 dots) for cover art on isfdb.org. Everyone else does.


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

Some artists to add:
Ring Around the Sun, WDL 1960 - Edgar Hodges - acc to signature (same art style is visible on quite a few covers of WDL / Consul / Five Star (UK)).
Bypass to Otherness, Consul 1963 - Pino dell' Orco - acc to signature
The Hour of the Phoenix, Consul 1964 - Josh Kirby - acc to Kirby checklist.

Angels and Spaceships, Four Square 1962 - Josh Kirby - acc to Kirby checklist.
Creeps By Night, Four Square 1966 - Michael Leonard - acc to vague signature 'Leonard'. Also used on Ace ...
Tarzan of the Apes, Four Square 1967 - Josh Kirby - acc to ha.com and Kirby checklist. More than a few other Tarzans are on that checklist
Untouched by Human Hands - Josh Kirby - acc to Kirby checklist.

Guardians of Time, Pan 1972 - Ian Miller - acc to comicartfans and tikit.net.
Galactic Pot-Healer, Pan 1972 - Ian Miller - same art as on 1977 ed.
S Is For Space, Pan 1972 - Ian Miller - not enough proof.
A Maze of Death, Pan 1973 - Ian Miller - acc to comicartfans
Zardoz, Pan 1974 - Ron Lesser - acc to many movie poster sites
Nightmare Reader Vol 1, Pan 1976 - Alan Lee - acc to [1]
17th Pan Book of Horror, Pan 1976 - Alan Lee - acc to [2]
The Door Into Summer, Pan 1977 - Gino d'Achille - acc to ginodachille.com, see Untitled 01. (Not yet PV'd).
Other Days, Other Eyes, Pan 1978 - Stuart Hughes (artist) - acc to Welshgriffin, see Flickr.
Suaine and the Crow God, NEL 1975 - Ian Miller - acc to comicartfans.

The Secret Visitors, Ace 1957 - Ed Valigursky - acc to style and munchkinpress.com.
The Space Willies, Ace 1960 - (Arthur?) Renshaw - acc to signature on this copy at Flickr.
Sanctuary in the Sky, Ace 1960 - Basil Gogos - acc to munchkinpress.com.
A Trace of Dreams, Ace 1972 - Davis Meltzer - based on style and the signature 'DM', even though Meltzer usually signs with 'Meltzer' or 'Davis Meltzer'.

The Weird Ones, Belmont 1962 - John Schoenherr - according to Ian Schoenherr here
Time Untamed, BT 1972 - (George?) Alvara - acc to ha.com

On the other hand:
Through a Glass Clearly does not look like Josh Kirby and is not on Kirby checklist.
20 Million Miles to Earth is not the exactly same cover as on the Italian translation and is of course not by Luigi Garonzi (probably by Ed Valigursky).
The Pawns of Null-A's style points to Ed Emshwiller, not Ed Valigursky. A vague signature EMSH appears to be visible at high magnification.
