Re: Cool Little Addition...

Now that is one of the coolest things I've seen!

I really like to find the original place that the story was published even though I have the stories in a collected edition. There is just something about having the place where it first appeared. It's like that feeling you get on the last day of school and you finally arrive home, leave your sneakers at the door and feel the carpet on your stocking feet. It can't be described but it's wonderful and that's what it's like when you find that original place. Very cool.

Re: Cool Little Addition...

Photoshop et al is very nice and you can do amazing things, but just look at those beauties. And you know that someone sat at a board and it came from their hand. Coupled with the fact that these artists were incredibly prolific, producing to order - amazing. I love the web, and more people if anything are creating stuff for you to look at, but I can't help feeling that something's been lost somewhere, both in the covers and between them.

There is nothing like looking at the old Pulp covers. There is a magic there that I don't see in today's book covers.

I'm not a jealous person. But don't be walking down a dark alley with those magazines!
