Have I got a treat in store for you! Sometime later this morning, Killer Covers will carry a lengthy interview with American artist Ron Lesser. Anyone who’s been reading this blog for a while should know that Lesser, who is now in his 70s, was one of the people most responsible for giving mid- to late-20th century paperback covers their handsome and memorable appearance.
As I’ve done previously with Harry Bennett, Robert Stanley, Paul Rader, and Robert McGinnis (the last of whose work is often confused with Lesser’s—which is certainly a compliment), I shall devote the next full month to posting book fronts and other artwork by Lesser on this page. Expect at least one new series installment every day.
So I ask: Are you ready to join the celebration?
