A separate entry is deserved for this 1980 cover for the Japanese translation of the first and greatest of the Doctor Who novelisations, Doctor Who and the Daleks by David Whitaker.
I would appreciate confirmation from Japanese scholars of the transliteration and translation of the title. The depiction of the Daleks is actually not a bad extrapolation from Whitaker’s text, which is very hazy on their actual dimensions.
I think we have a consensus on the virtues or otherwise of Orbis!
And thank you for unmasking. It would have taken me a while to work it out.
