Canaveral Press - Reprints

Reprints

They launched another subsidiary, Canaveral Press, giving it a name identified with space exploration underway at Cape Canaveral, Florida. Under that imprint, Biblo and Tannen published a line of Burroughs books. Most were reprints of Edgar Rice Burroughs novels on which the copyright had lapsed, but in April 1963, the firm acquired the rights to unpublished Burroughs manuscripts.

Canaveral was on good terms with the Burroughs heirs, and several Canaveral Burroughs titles are legitimate first editions of material not previously published in book form and in some cases not previously published. To illustrate the Burroughs novels, Lupoff brought into Canaveral several leading illustrators of the 1950s and 1960s, notably Reed Crandall, Frank Frazetta and Roy G. Krenkel. The Burroughs books continue to sell at premium prices over the Internet.
