Vintage Covers

You gotta love old covers!





unknown year - those harem pants are sitting awfully low!






unknown year - the adventures of an English Knight in Indochina. The girl looks like a Las Vegas show girl!








unknown year - story of Jane Shore, mistress of Edward IV









1962 - about Henry VIII's sister Mary

What on earth have they done to Jane Shore's eyes in the Phillip Lindsay novel?

By the way, I reviewed The Reluctant Queen over on Amazon. It's not about Anne Neville, but about Mary, Henry VIII's sister. There is a novel by Jean Plaidy called The Reluctant Queen about Anne Neville, though.

I know - she looks possessed or something! Thanks for the correction about the Haycraft book. I actually think I knew that, but forgot when I was doing the post.

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!
