The art from the cover (minus the girl ) is actually from the delightfully strange Nightmare World in Weird Tales of the Future #3.

Dang it I can't seem to recall where but I've seen "Speck of Stardust" in another book with different art.

I came here searching for Basil Wolverton, but I stayed to read "Day of Doom"! The story made no sense to me, but the scenes of giant space armadas fighting each other are incredible, eg pp 6 and 7. Shame the registration isn't perfect
