The paperback cover for Waltari's The Egyptian


I found an article featuring the paperback cover for Mika Waltari's The Egyptian. The illo for Pocket Cardinal Giant No. GC-31 is by Charles Binger, the publication year is 1956. The guy is more heroic in the cover that he's in the novel!

I don't have any of Waltari's English-translated paperbacks, so if there's anyone out there with The Etruscan or The Dark Angel or other adventure novels of his, I'd be thrilled to see what they look like. Make those scanners sing!
