Welcome aboard! In my time I was seeing the Frazetta covers for so many books, plus Galaxy and If magazines. I always started at the end the alphabet, closer to the Jack Vance and Roger Zelazny, and don’t get me started on Cornell Woolrich searches.
I almost forgot all the Ace Doubles!

Is Jack Chalker missing?
Vance, Zelazny, and Chalker have been completely forgotten these days.

Between my brother and myself, we had so many of these books, in these exact same editions. Our “local” was Hole-In-The-Wall Books in Falls Church, VA, which had a deep selection of sci-fi and fantasy, as well as weekly comics. And I’ll confess that I’m one of those who read the Star Wars novel before seeing the movie, in my case about a week before.

Our family used to use Hole in the wall too!. I think it’s still in business, but I have to restrict myself to places within walking distance these days.
