    Strange Sisters: The Art of Lesbian Pulp Fiction by Jaye Zimet

    Great book with lots of great paperback covers with info on a great many of them. I'm a great fan of 50's and 60's paperback and magazine art. Though this book has many pictures of book covers I know there are scores of covers that were not included. It would be nice to see a more comprehensive selection of covers. Meanwhile this book is a great buy. Highly recommended.
