cover gallery: E PLURIBUS UNICORN by Theodore Sturgeon

Richard Powers's painting for the first Ballantine paperback edition, 1956.


































Bill Rose, 1961


































Richard Powers again, Ballantine 1965
Robert Pepper, Ballantine 1970

































Uncredited and uninspired, but OK. 1968































1977 hideous uncredited Pocket 1st edition painting (US & C).


































Boris Vallejo's Pocket 1978 painting/ed.







































Generic, but better. First edition I bought and read, 1984.
First edition, 1953, perhaps the most uninspired of all the covers it's had. A. M. Jauss.
