I agree with BV Larson:

Especially Zelazny! I also have fond memories of SF stories from the 50s and 60s, including novels from Gnome Press (Wilmar Shiras's Children of the Atom, Nat Schachner's Space Lawyer) and books for children from the Winston Science Fiction series (Chad Oliver's Mists of Dawn, Ben Bova's The Star Conquerors, Vance's Vandals of the Void) that I'd like to have as ebooks. A few have made it through Project Gutenberg (Wollheim's Secret of the Ninth Planet, Tom Godwin's The Survivors AKA Space Prison), so I have hopes there are more to come.

I'm a bit apprehensive about asking for them, though--most of them I haven't read in decades, since I was a teenager, and tastes change.
