Thank you to Cátia Fernandes and John Berkey Art Ltd.
Wow.
Lovely. I bought a lot of bad SF just to own the covers.
Super pics. How about a collection of Chesley Bonestell or Chris Foss SF illustrations? Maybe a new capsule?
You do know that a lot of these are still under copyright, I hope?
Ditto for Foss and Bonestell…
The first painting was used for the cover of the “Star Wars” novelization.
For mentioning Chris Foss, Andrew Porter, YOU ROCK.
The second was printed as a poster. It camw with the Star Wars soundtrack albums on LP.
