And now for a little fun.
Listed in this section, you will find different cover art for the same literary works. The books are listed alphabetically by title. In some cases, the books may appear to be by different authors, but I determined that one name was actually a pseudonym. In some cases, a later reprinted work was released under a different title (look for a second title on the cover listed in parenthesis in small print). If someone recognizes that two books are different, please email me.
The scans are not annotated. Click a thumbnail and read its web address to see details. The publisher and book number will be all the way at the end of the web address, just before the ".jpg."
Unless the background illustration changed significantly, I have tried NOT to include reprints that simply alter the same cover image, such as these:
This section is FAR from complete; and frankly, it never will be. This is sort of a labor of love ... but it is incredibly time-consuming, since there is no normal resource that sorts vintage paperbacks by title. I found most of these "matches" by sorting a database from my own collection and then checking and renaming each scan individually. I will try to update it every three or four years. Many thanks to Bob Gaines, who has identified hundreds of sets of covers.
One last note: If you're downloading an image, you may notice a little letter at the end of the picture number ... for example: "signetT1826g." That little "g" coincides with a printing number, based on its relative position in the alphabet ... in this case, a 7th printing, since "g" is the seventh letter. It's a computer-sorting thing. Otherwise, in my computer database, a 17th printing would be listed before a 2nd printing. Live with it.
