Thanks!
How cool are they!? I'm gonna keep searching second hand book stores for more!
nice work in sketch up.
I remember that second book cover in my old high school library, yes yes that was quite a while ago I know.
nice find in the book store by the way.
The cover for 'John Carter of Mars' you show was by Michael Whelan, who did covers for all eleven books in the series. They are a rare case of covers being done by an artist who had obviously read the book first - all of them are both excellent and accurate (I had the cover to 'Gods of Mars' as my PC backdrop for a while). Worth hunting out.
The books themselves are classics as well.
