New Arrivals

Yesterday I managed to sneak in a visit to Fair's Fair books 
while my wife and a friend shopped for some Mid Century Items 
down the street. Yippee!!

You never know what a used book store will yield. 
This trip the gems were a number of Paul Lehr covers.

A great Paul Lehr with a full scale figure, cool.



Beyond Tomorrow cover uncredited.

I knew I wanted this Brunner the second I saw the cover 
on the web. It was nice to find it without paying

 ABE pricing. The artist's name is under the right toe 
(your right) it is hard to make out,  

ISFDB states it "Appears to be PDRICK".

This copy of Venus Equilateral has a nice Jack Gaughan cover. 
I am not a huge fan of his work but I like the old school

ship and space station. This edition was printed in 1967 

but the stories appeared in Astounding starting in

1942 so the cover fits.

Peter Jones, I have a sentimental attachment to his work.

I also like the Weird Tales connection to early SF  and the 

contents looked fun.
