The solid book we found, can not be wrote today…
Following on from our recent item regarding TMWFTE paperbacks with David Bowie on the cover, (03.17.2009 NEWS: PENGUIN MODERN CLASSICS VERSION OF TMWFTE DUE) BowieNetter Rob ter Stege has kindly sent in details of the above edition following our request for non-English language versions with Bowie covers.
This is a Prisma publication from 1984 with an illustration of T J Newton by Hans Pieko and as lovely as it is I think perhaps Hans’ depiction of the loveable alien is a tad on the stocky side. Anyway, it’s great to see and many thanx to Rob for supplying it.
While trawling recently, I found the above Japanese edition from 2003. It did seem a little out of plaice among all them cods, crabs, seaweed and the like.
So, are there any more out there folx? Come on, there has to be French and Italian versions at least?
