Thank you both.
I was aware of the lspace covers section, but it seems incomplete, for example it is missing the cover for the Night Watch.. I haven't reviewed all of the covers though.
My goal is to collect all those editions that have Josh Kirby's covers and the picture is spread on both front and back cover (I think that only Corgi have those?).
During the process I thought that a topic on the matter will be interesting for some fans, and here I am
An interesting site is: http://www.isfdb.org/cgi-bin/ea.cgi?Josh_Kirby
But I don't want to ruin this thread, so I will make my own

I don't believe I've seen that Josh Kirby covers site before. Very interesting.

I have visited that site or one with a similar but did not see the Josh Kirby section, thanks for putting up the link.

It would be fun to put together a definitive guide to all the Discworld covers from around the world.

I'm reminded of this quiz that I did several years ago.

I like the European covers, some are very much in the style of Josh Kirby.

Yes, the Estonian ones in particular, are weird to start with, but then grow on you.

I like Paul Kidby's artwork, but for me Josh Kirby is the Daddy.

Edited to correct name. I put Josh on both.

Only if you leave out the U.S. covers. We have enough things to be embarrassed about here.
