Mickey Spillane: Cover Gallery part 1

I've long been a fan of Mickey Spillane's novels. My dad was a fan and had copies of his novels which I picked up along with dozens of others, leading to my early love of James Hadley Chase and John Creasey amongst others.

Spillane is the subject of one of the essays in Mean Streetmaps and I thought this was a good opportunity to put together a cover gallery of his work. There are quite a few editions of his books that I don't have scans of but hopefully you'll enjoy the ones that do appear below.
