Some seriously old OLD school scifi for you.
While nowhere near as imaginative as Winsor McKay's Nemo, or as elegant and sexy as Alex Raymond's stuff, there's a lot of fun to be had in these pages, and I can imagine it setting a lot of impressionable young scifi artists down the road to where we currently are.
It's cool to see a lot of the visual tropes of the genre coming into fruition in this book, with stories trudging ever onwards towards almost a hundred years old.
Happy hunting if you're interested!
