From a time when small furry creatures from Alpha Centauri were real small furry creatures from Alpha Centauri, the cover art of Ron Turner. More unlikely spaceships and angry Venusians than you could possibly need of a day. Gratuitous breasts, 1950s chrome-finned optimism, giant hands crushing the Empire State Building, it's all there. Magnificent. And isn't Vargo Statten is a superb name for a scifi writer?Mod out to dust down his kill-o-ray and replenish the duodenium cells on his space hopper. Or something.

They have definite kitsch appeal - I'd put one on my wall. You just know the covers are better than the stories inside.
