Does anyone know if there's an image available online of the New Worlds issue for, I think, 1969 which had a Mervyn Peake cover illustrating Harlan Ellison's 'A Boy and his Dog' ?

I'm sure we're all curious to know what you wanted it for Mike. On the subject of Peake I wanted to recommend the illustrations he did for Alice In Wonderland. I have a paperback edition from a few years ago, and they are superb!'You know, I can't keep up with you. If I hadn't met you in person, I quite honestly would NOT believe you really existed. I just COULDN'T. You do so MUCH... if half of what goes into your zines is to be believed, you've read more at the age of 17 than I have at the age of 32 - LOTS more'
Archie Mercer to Mike (Burroughsania letters page, 1957)

Mervyn Peake's illustrations for Treasure Island are the goods!
Remind me a bit of the work of Gustave Dore, only more expressive. Peake was definitely one of the finest illustrators of the Twentieth Century. :)

I wanted to show it to Sebastian Peake, since I'm trying to buy it for Harlan, but Sebastian, unfortunately, doesn't remember it. He, like me, thinks it was probably done around the time of Titus Alone, since it has that feel. I always returned artists' originals to them from New Worlds.Pre-order or Buy my latest titles in Europe:
