This has become one of my favorite Heinlein covers, and of course both of these are now posted in the Collections/Anthologies page of my Heinlein Cover Art galleries.
Enjoy!

I was on the prowl for some more nifty Heinlein recently, and I picked up a cool 1953 copy of The Man Who Sold the Moon with the classic original Hubert Rogers cover art, plus a first edition Assignment in Eternity with a gorgeous Ric Binkley cover showing the domed lunar hideout of the villainous Mrs. Keithly of “Gulf.” This has become one of my favorite Heinlein covers, and of course both of these are now posted in the Collections/Anthologies page of my Heinlein Cover Art galleries.

Recently a friend of mine was in Germany, and she kindly picked me up a neat German-language copy of Sixth Column. Danke, mein fraulein! Originally the tale was serialized in Astounding Science-Fiction, in January, February, and March of 1941 under the Anson MacDonald byline, of course, and scans of the Hubert Rogers cover art and Schneeman interiors can be seen in the Pulp Magazines page of my Heinlein Cover Art galleries. Afterward the piece was published in book form in 1949, under this title and also as The Day After Tomorrow. In any event, the cover art for this version of the book, like the others, is posted in my Earlier Adult Works page. Enjoy! Rafeeq Lately I’ve been picking up some stray Heinlein that my collection has lacked, and although I haven’t blogged about all the incoming pieces, here’s a random piece of interest: a reprint of the 1952 story “Sky Lift” in the August 1958 issue of a semi-girlie magazine called Rogue for Men. In addition to a number of racy photos, though, there also is a nifty illustration for the Heinlein story by D. Bruce Derry. This—along with the shots from original appearance in Imagination, of course—can be found in the Pulp Magazines page of my Heinlein Cover Art galleries. Enjoy! Rafeeq |
