I posted about King Solomon’s Mines by H. Rider Haggard this week, as Part of the League of Extraordinary Gentle — Men of la — Book Challenge (Vol. 1). For a book that has been around since 1885 there has been many wonderful covers.
Personally I like the last one, just because I have a tendency towards the pulp art, but I think that all the selections below reflect the style, ideas and narrative of the book. Good job by the designers who might have actually read the book.
So tell me, which one is your favorite?
