MASTERS OF SPACE

Orbit paperback, 1976. Cover artist uncredited.

"Among the handful of writers who make up the real hardcore of science fiction, Edward E. Smith stands supreme. His 'Skylark' and 'Lensman' series set a standard for breathtaking intergalactic adventure which has never been surpassed.
 
MASTERS OF SPACE 
shows the master story-teller at the top of his form in this story of a brash new race erupting into space, determined to risk their very existence in a bid to take over the Galactic Empire and prevent it falling into the hands of tyrants."

The cover's art style reminds me of Karel Thole's work.
