Variant - AT THE EARTH'S CORE - Canaveral Press edition

Facsimile mounted on a book
I love the St. John illustration for the first edition cover to AT THE EARTH'S CORE, but I have never cared
particularly for the Mahlon Blaine illustrations of the early Canaveral editions. Therefore, I have therefore
developed a variant facsimile the Canaveral edition using the J. Allen St. John two-color illustration opposite
page 258 of the McClurg edition (see above left). For those who like this design I also adapted the illustration to
G&D editions of the 20s and 30s. I modified the back cover and flaps on both editions. To create the illusion of
color, I infused transparent hues, building layer by layer halting only when I felt tone and value were correct,
giving the finished illustration a water-color look that I fInd esthetically pleasing. I hope you do too.
Once purchased, your dust jacket will be wrapped in a mylar dust cover, packed flat, and mailed within twenty-four hours
of payment, even on weekends --- It won't go out until the next workday, but it will be dropped off at the post office
within twenty-four hours of payment. Shipping in the USA is free, calculated in the cost of the product.
International shipping to Canada and Great Britain only: $4.00 added to the overall costs. (See SERVICES on the navbar
above.)
eMail if there is a problem with fitting your DJ. I'll pre-fit it on my book just to be as sure as possible that all is correct.
However, anything is possible. So contact me immediately if you have a problem.
