A Collection a Day #43 – Edgar Rice Burroughs, originally uploaded by Cool and Collected.
Edgar Rice Burroughs is the grand-daddy of science fiction and fantasy novels as we know them. If you have never read his John Carter of Mars series, do yourself a favor and check them out. It still amazes me how well those books still hold up, and it’s easy to see the influence he has had on just about everyone in the genre.
Pictured here are some paperback reprints that show just some of the great artwork that has been produced for Burrough’s work. Of course, no one can hold a candle to the Frank Frazetta covers.
I have collected so many different things that I thought it would be fun to try and photograph a collection a day and see how far I can get.
