That is probably the most influential cover in the history of SF.
It led to the entire genre being derided as "that Buck Rogers stuff".
I've wondered what might've happened if the newspaper syndicate had licensed Skylark.
Would SF have been derided as "that Dick Seaton stuff??"
Somehow I can't quite imagine Queen singing about the crew of the Skylarks.
