I come across so many great book covers in my research I'm creating a thread to collect them (feel free to add your own)....

rather than plug in a scanner i googled and found this has had a few cool covers.  not really sci fiction or horror but the first one evoked from the beast on slaves' backs and the iridescent cthulhu looking anthologist.  mine's the last one.

The first Hesse cover look like 'Dara' - a chaos demon from Roger Zelazny's Amber series as illustrated in Wanye Barlowe's Fantasy bestiary. Unfortunately I cannot find that picture online...


The second Hesse reminds me of this Leonard Cohen's Beautiful Losers cover

The forth one of this Lovecraft collection;

Viewing all these covers brought back deep memories of watching Prisoners of Gravity - they had an episode devoted to SF & Fantasy book covers - the good, the bad and the misleading. Looking back I realize that show was like the internet to me before the internet. I donated to TVO and wore that my PoG t-shirt until it was in rags. Prisoners of Gravity and Mystery Science Theatre were the two lo-fi slacker satellites that beamed right into my teenage mind.
