Short story collection including works by Leigh Brackett, Stanley Weinbaum, Robert M. Williams, and John Brunner. Richard M. Powers (1921-1996) employed a range of illustration styles that influenced generations of artists. His covers are distinctive and invoke connections with surrealism, symbolism, and the abstract. He signed his works in many ways, ranging from Gorman (or Gorman Powers) to Powers LAZ/Org. An amazingly prolific artist, the best source for additional information is Jane Frank's The Art of Richard Powers (Paper Tiger, 2001). |

Another original charcoal pencil preliminary drawing for The Mastermind of Mars drawn in late 1962. Image area 4" x 6.75." Charcoal pencil on gray textured paper with "RGK" signature in lower right.

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. Red Alert (1958) is the basis of the 1963 film Dr. Strangelove, Or How I Stopped Worrying and Started to Love the Bomb, directed by Stanley Kubrick. His "Commander -1" (c. 1965, UK) is a further treatment of nuclear warfare. He committed suicide in 1966. Note how the cover art has changed from D-350 (and D-551) and the tie-in to the movie. I have also acquired another copy of F-210 with a different cover blurb (gives same publication information). |
