Triplanetary
A Tale of Cosmic Adventure
Here is the cover of the Old Earth Books edition of Triplanetary, which is substantively the same as the original Fantasy Press edition. The art is by A. J. Donnell.
The iBooks mass market edition of Triplanetary. This appears to be a preliminary mock-up, as there is a retro-styled spaceship visible through the hexagons on the actual book.
This is the cover from the March 1933 issue of Astounding where "Triplanetary Part 1" was originally slated to appear. Due to a change of editorships, the story was not carried, but this piece of art, depicting Conway, Clio and Bradley escaping from the Hyperion in a life boat, was retained.

Here is a cover scan from Amazing Stories January 1934, where the first part of the "Triplanetary" serial (comprising the Conway Costigan plotline) was published. It depicts Costigan firing a semi-portable at a space pirate. Art by Leo Morey.
Amazing Stories February 1934. The cover has nothing to do with Triplanetary, but is included here for reference. Art by Leo Morey.
I think that the cover of the March 1934 issue of Amazing Stories depicts Conway, Clio and Bradley being captured by the Nevian robot (or whatever it was), but I suppose it could be a scene from some other story. Art by Leo Morey.
Another scan of the same issue, but higher resolution, so you can see the details on the armor and the robot (?). Art by Leo Morey.
Amazing Stories April 1934. The cover has nothing to do with Triplanetary, but is included here for reference. Art by Leo Morey.
