Footnotes:
1: (D-125) Robert Emil Schulz (1928-1978) was an illustrator (with a degree in architecture from Princeton University) who produced cover art for Pocket, Signet, Dell, and Bantam as well as illustrations for "men's" magazines such as Adventure and Men's Digest. In addition to his well-received cover art for I, Robot, he also did many western covers that included a series of reissues of Zane Grey stories by Pocket Books.
2: (D-274) David McIlwain (b. 1921) served in the Royal Air Force during WWII. After the war he took up TV engineering and began writing about radio and television. His first novel, Spaceways (c. 1953, UK) was adapted from his radio play and later as a motion picture.
3: (D-287) General Holland M. Smith was the wartime commander of the United States Marine Corps in the Central Pacific. The book is dated with a 1949 copyright date but the ACE edition was actually published in 1958. The art is painted on a 22" x 30" thick piece of SUPERIOR illustration board. Actual size of image is 19.25" x 23". The rest of the board is painted a flat yellow which matchs the background color of the painting. The artist blocked off the image area with masking tape. Close-up image of characters.
4: (D-324) Raymond King Cummings (1887-1957) was an adventurer (gold prospecting, oil field, and orange plantations) and later an editor for Thomas Alva Edison. His writing career spanned thirty years and he is most remembered for one of his earliest stories, "The Girl in the Golden Atom" (c. 1919), as well as being one of the authors used by Gernsback in the early Amazing pulp magazine.
5: (D-327) Jeff Sutton byline is sometimes Jefferson Sutton. Jefferson Howard Sutton (b. 1913) studied at San Diego State College (now University of California - San Diego), served in the United States Marine Corps, and was a photographer and newsman. Another part of his career was devoted to research into survival at high altitudes.
6: (D-350) Peter George (1924-1966) spent most of his career in the Royal Air Force. He wrote two novels. Two Hours to Doom (c. 1958, UK) was later titled Red Alert for the U.S. market and carries his pseudonym Peter Bryant. His Commander -1 (c. 1965, UK) is a further treatment of nuclear warfare. He committed suicide in 1966.
7: (D-366) Alan Edward Nourse (b. 1928) is one of science fiction's early medical practioners. Trained at Pennylvania Medical School, his expertise was incorporated into A Man Obsessed which addresses brain surgery and psychology while The Mercy Men (1968) investigates medical testing and the use of experimental subjects for pay. He wrote non-fiction (The Nine Planets - astronomy) as well as a number of tales in juvenile (now called young adult) literature.
8: (D-473) John Taine was the pseudonym of Eric Temple Bell (1883-1960), Professor of Mathematics at the California Institute of Technology, whose highly readable books on mathematics are still highly acclaimed. Taine wrote about a dozen SF books. Most of them were Originally published in the 1920's and 1930's in hardcover form, since Taine does not appear to have been aware of the SF magazines until his writing career was well established. After World War II, there was a brief but intense Taine revival. Many of his best novels were reissued by the short-lived semi-professional book publishers of that era and a number of his books were reprinted by Famous Fantastic Mysteries. However, many modern readers have never heard of him.
9: (D-516) Otis Adelbert Kline (1891-1964) wrote a number of adventure series dealing with Mars and Venus along the lines of Edgar Rice Burroughs. Although he published in Argosy and Weird Tales (where The Swordsman of Mars was serialized), he also wrote a number of "Dragoman' oriental tales (The Man Who Limped and Other Tales; 1946). He also wrote songs and published music, and worked as a screen writer.
10: (D-524) Maysie Coucher Greg Smith (1901-1971) was a prolific Australian-born writer of numerous romance and romance/thriller novels. She was married to Delano Ames (1906-1987) who was a writer of detective fiction (he divorced her in 1937 and remarried). The 1951 edition of Overseas Nurse (under the title After Tomorrow) was published by Bouregy & Curl, Inc. (New York) in hardcover.
11: (D-543) Harry Benjamin Whittingham (1915-1989) was a native Floridian and a prolific writer. Besides writing over 150 novels in mystery, western, and the romance genres, he also wrote screenplays, television scripts, and short stories. A collection of Whittington's manuscripts can be found at Florida State University, Tallahassee, FL.
12: (D-550) Poul Anderson (1926-2001), a former President of the Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers Association, earned three Nebula and seven Hugo awards. He published over 100 novels and short story collections. He is remembered as one of the most imaginative and hugely prolific authors of science fiction's Golden Age. His works include Satan's World, Tau Zero, Midsummer Tempest, The Boat of a Million Years, Three Hearts and Three Lions, The Enemy Stars, and Brain Wave. In 1997, he received SFWA's Grandmaster Award and in 2000 he was inducted to the Science Fiction and Fantasy Hall of Fame.
13: (D-553) William Hope Hodgson (1877-1918) was killed in WWI in France while serving as an officer for the British Army. His primary venue was the supernatural and the macabre and many consider his nightmarish visions to rival those of H. P. Lovecraft. The House on the Borderland and The Night Land (c. 1912) are the best examples of his science fiction writing.
14: (D-594) Gerald McConnell (1931-2004) illustrated over 2000 paperback covers and was later known for his three-dimensional and prop work. He was a leader of the Graphic Artist Guild in the 1970's and '80's, and is credited with efforts in improving the protection of copyrights for illustrators, led by Tad Crawford. In addtion, he taught at the Pratt Institute, published several books on three dimensional arts, was picture editor or art editor on various industry books, and later became a successful publisher and owner of Madison Square Press.
Booknotes:
1: (D270) This cover art appears to have been swiped for use in the British paperback The Big Rumble by Edward De Roo (Digit Books, R-360; 1960). It was then used by Michael Barson and Steven Heller as the cover art for their Teenage Confidental: An Illustrated History of the American Teen (Chonicle Books; 1998).
What is interesting is that there is no signature on this art and although it was in the Charles Martignette estate (and sold by Heritage Auction House), there is no knowledge of the artist identity. ~ Dr. Smith
2: (D-323) The Violent Ones is a juvenile delinquency/teenage gangs anthology edited by Brant House (aka Donald Wollheim). Stories by Hal Ellson (aka Harlan Ellison), Evan Hunter, Jonathan Craig, Robert Turner, Gil Brewer, Robert Bowen, Murray Wolf, Robert Brown, and Robert Silverberg.
3: (D-350) Other editions of this volume are located at D-551 (reprint of 1958 edition), F-210 (1963 edition with different cover as well as the tie-in to the 1963 movie) as well as ACE 00078. See comment about renumbering of ACE single editions at D-551.
4: (D-422) Sixteen short stories including: Atitudes by Philip Jose Farmer, The Star Gypsies by William Lindsay Gresham, Experiment by Kay Rogers, Lot by Ward Moore, New Rituals by Idris Seabright, Vandy by Manly Wade Wellman and Star Light, Star Bright by Alfred Bester.
5: (D-538) The 1,000 Year Plan was Originally published in ACE Double D-110 (1955) bound with Poul Anderson's No World of Their Own. It was also published as an ACE Special Edition single (D-110) in 1955. These editions all use the same Emsh cover art.
6: (D-539) Original cover art painted by Rudy Nappi for D-539. Gouache on illustration board, Signed lower left. The full image size is approximately 18.75 x 11.75 with the overall (unframed) size being 23 x 16. The image area was "squared off" on the board in production with 3/4 inch black tape (partially shown in the first photo). However, the image area shown in the first photo is slightly more than what appears on the paperback cover. As was common, part of the image was cropped by the publisher when it was transferred to the cover. Close-up image of characters.
7: (D-551) One of the ACE Image Library users has brought to my attention that this may be a re-number of D-350. On the image of this cover there was the typical ACE white renumber block in the number space. Since there is so little real information on these renumbers, I only ever get decent data when a user sends me a query. As you can see from the image for D-350, the price is $0.35 (which is also the price on the D-551). It is interesting that there is no reprint notice on the copyright page (but ACE seldom did this even when they actually bought the rights for a story). For example (of this style of renumbering), F-210 (which is a definite reprint of D-350 with a new cover) has a price change to $0.40. I want to thank the user (anonymously) for sending me this image that allows me to document this renumber issue. ~ Dr. Smith
