This vintage Arkham House original cover art by Joe Wehrle, Jr. was the cover for The Princess of All Lands by Russell Kirk, published in 1978. Along with the cover are two color overlays for printing in black and white and two colors. The register marks in two corners helped the printer align all three printing plates. All the lettering is hand-drawn, not machine made.
Joe Wehrle, Jr. is noted for work in Galaxy and IF digest science fiction magazines, covers and interior illustrations in Arkham House and Mirage Press books, illustrations for Burroughs-oriented journals and on a lighter note, the story and drawings in the Big Little Book Cauliflower Catnip.
