Earlier today a post on Boing Boing brought this fantastic stash of 1960s Pelican paperback covers assembled by Things Magazine to our attention, and we’ve been gleefully digging through their archive ever since. We’ve put together a slideshow of a few of our most interesting finds for you after the jump; some caught our eye with their lovely visuals, while others have such ridiculous titles that it’s kind of hard to believe they’re real. They are. Enjoy!
