A History of 16 Science Fiction Classics, Told In Book Covers

23 November 2009 No Comment

bookcoversheadI’m a huge fan of vintage books, including Ian Fleming’s James Bond books, classics from Jack Kerouac, crime and trash, and sci-fi. When I pick up vintage books, in shops or online, I always pick the version with the coolest cover, since there are usually a bunch of options to choose from with classics. The i09 website has a look at 16 classic sci-fi book’s covers, most pretty cool, some hideous, and some ridiculous (I’m lookin’ at you, War Of The Worlds with the Star Trek USS Enterprise on the cover!).
