This Issue’s Cover -64
Bad News from the Future!
Charles I of England learns that things did not go well for him in the future that Grantville came from!
The source artwork is a portrait by Gerrit van Honthorst, 1628.
Cromwell’s England is a book that may or may not exist. If one does, this isn’t that one.
your juxtapositional art is always both thought_provoking and amusing. I wish you could backtrack on some of the art in earlier issues and provide comment.

Thank you for your kind words, Lee, very much appreciated! I will consider your suggestion, it would be fun to do.
Perhaps it represents one of thee books:

Perhaps, indeed! My goal was not to use an actual real book, just the concept.
Thanks for posting the large covers, they help make great wallpapers and screensavers for my desktop computer, iphone, and Kindle.
You are welcome, Bill, thanks for commenting! When the dust cleared after the site move, it seems the old cover pages didn’t survive the trip. I’ve been meaning to go back and replace them, but it will be a big job. Knowing there’s someone out there who would appreciate the effort is encouraging, let me see what I can do.
How about a retrospective. One old cover with each new issue
Thanks for the suggestion, James. If I were able to do so, do you have any particular covers you would like to see? I am the first to admit, not all covers were ‘created equal’, I’ve had a few misses along with the hits, nobody’s perfect! LOL
