These are without doubt the most bizarre Hornblower covers I have ever seen!! I really want to know what the artists were on when they designed these. Something hallucinogenic I expect... ;)

Heh, these remind me of the unofficial Ace editions of the Lord of the Rings--
This is your book on drugs

It was the 60s, so everything had to look groovy.

Eh, the first one isn't so bad. It's like those black-and-white pictures that add some color to the shot.

The second one, though...How does that even remotely relate to Hornblower and the Atropos? When was the book published? If it wasn't the sixties/seventies, I'll be shocked.

acid on the Atropos - that second one is deeply disturbing it is true
