This week is books written before I was born. I'm doing the fourth part of my vintage SF covers.
These covers are really something else. All of these were published in mid 50s to 60s? I'm guessing. My TTT list
ReplyDeleteSuperb set of book covers, with catchy titles to match. The land that time forgot is particularly eye-catching. And since I loved the Tarzan comics, Jewels of Opar looks great too. :)

I never get tired of seeing these vintage covers, Greg😁
ReplyDeleteInteresting list--you are really teaching me the sci-fi canon. I'm pre-Star Trek. I remember the debut! lol

ReplyDeleteI like the two different covers for The Land that Time Forgot. That's cool!
ReplyDeleteI love these vintage SFF covers. The covers for The Land that Time Forgot are really calling out to me, as if Back to the Stone Age.
ReplyDeleteLove the vintage cover posts!!
ReplyDeleteIncredible. I hijacked the link for a different topic this week too :) https://www.howdidthatbookend.com/ttt-february-new-releases/
ReplyDeleteLove all of these! Especially The Land That Time Forgot looks so cool.
ReplyDeletewow! I think I have the Tarzan one at home, not sure if it's the same edition though. I loved all the book covers, so retro. :)
ReplyDeleteThose are great covers.
ReplyDeleteBeware the monsters!
ReplyDeleteWho said we shouldn't choose a book for its cover?? They should come and see what you are up too, lol. My post is more conventional, lol: https://wordsandpeace.com/2021/02/02/top-ten-books-written-before-i-was-born/
ReplyDeleteThat Star Trek cover is wonderful. It looks like comic book art. 👏👏👏✨
ReplyDeleteI love that Star Trek cover, there is something about it.
ReplyDeleteOhhh. The Land That Time Forgot. I remember the old movie, but never read the book.
ReplyDeletethat Star Trek cover is unsettling.
ReplyDeleteIt's amazing to me the differences in covers!
ReplyDeleteHallo, Hallo Greg!
ReplyDeleteGuess who remembered to check your blog just as your comment came onto mine!? lol I didn't see the topic for today's TTT until moments ago as I've been offline nursing some injuries which prevented me from blogging/tweeting for over a week now. I had to suspend half my posts going live too and I'm hoping to release one of the book reviews later tonight -- I wasn't sure what to do with this topic as nearly ALL the books on my Classics Club TBR are considerably befitting of this category and of course, eh, where to do with that!?
I wasn't sure if I should break it down into Classics, Science Fiction, Fantasy or just take a hard pass. (smirks)
I can honestly say outside of Edgar Rice Burroughs, I haven't heard of the other authors! Full respect on that! Have you read these or are these on your TBR? I'd be keen to know which story was your top favourite!? I love the pulp style book covers don't you? They are a classic in their own right.
ReplyDeleteBoth of the covers for The Land That Time Forgot are awesome.
Here is our Top Ten Tuesday. Thanks for stopping by earlier.
I love how action-packed these vintage covers are. Great selection!
ReplyDeleteOooh! The covers to these books look awesome, especially the Star Trek one! Great list!
ReplyDeleteHere’s my TTT!

Those water ones creep me out! I'm not afraid of big bodies of water, exactly, but I definitely always wonder what's lying beneath them. Yikes!
ReplyDeleteHappy TTT!
