Are All Mutants Strange?

When in one of my book-ordering frenzies, I got this "book" by speculative legend John Keel.
Here's the front cover.
... And the rear cover.

What this is, is a cut-and-pasteup of Keel's 1970 classic Strange Creatures from Time and Space.  The newer version is a 8.5" x 11" pamphlet type of publication.  The outside is cover stock.

Maybe Keel was going broke, and signed the book rights to someone who would re-publish it?  I do not know.
Here's the cover art of my 1970 Fawcett paperback, and it's a keeper from Frank Frazetta.

At a later time we'll talk bout the creepy, disturbing topics of the actual contents ... but for now you can compare the classic pulp-type art of Frazetta with the sixth-grade-level cover of the pamphlet reissue.

TTFN!
