German PLANET OF THE APES Paperback Covers

Man The Fugitive

Escape To Tomorrow

Journey Into Terror

A while back, I shared the covers of a couple of George Alex Effinger's Planet Of The Apes novelizations based on the 1974 CBS television series. While the U.S. editions sported unimaginative cover photos of the TV cast (Ron Harper, James Naughton and Roddy McDowell), these German editions feature appealingly lurid paintings where the gorilla soldiers appear to be wearing post-Civil War Union cavalry uniforms... huh?

Anyway, I got a kick out of seeing these covers, and thought you might, too. Have a great weekend!
