Title: Recommendation for Classic SciFi Poster Book
Post by: mattsw on June 08, 2018, 12:38:27 PM: Hi,

I know books are discussed on the forum, but I cannot find one type in particular. I am looking for a book with photos/illustrations of posters from the 1950’s and early 1960’s classic SciFi period. Could I get a recommendation please.

Thank you,
Matthew

Graven Images by Ron Borst has a good section on those years as well.
