Book Cover: On The Road


Rescued today from the Oxfam bin. A great cover even if it is slightly misleading (I'm not sure the foxy woman has that much to do with the story). Still, a nice pulp illustration from the 1960s – the book above is a Pan books 3rd printing from 1967 (the 1st Pan edition was 1961).

First published in 1957, Jack Kerouac's On The Road was 53 years old last Sunday.
