Catherine de Medici
Susan over at Reading, Raving and Ranting has posted a wonderfully cheesy (and provocative)
cover of one of Jean Plaidy's books on Catherine de Medici from the 1950s. The only fiction books I know of about Catherine are the three that Plaidy wrote. Here are some of the covers which all depict Catherine very differently.
From 1971
From 1977
From 1953
From 1978
From 1952
unknown year
Also from 1978
From 2007
Welcome to my blog collection of book covers. In the course of looking for books on ebay, I have come across some very interesting book covers. I didn't always end up buying the book, so the covers shown here aren't necessarily ones that I own. Just ones I liked, disliked or thought were funny, cheesy, etc. I'm no expert when it comes to creating stuff like this, so we'll see how well this format works.
Suggestions are always appreciated!

Not as striking as Susan's Madame Serpent from the 50s, but still a very cool collection. Thank you!
Great pictures! (It's amazing how many editions of the same Jean Plaidy novels there are.)
