I started reading the series when I was twelve then picked it back up when I was in my early twenties. By the time I was 25 I had read the entire series.

The "other UK" version is by the great Bruce Pennington; his thark and thoat are not my favorite, but no other illustrator has done such justice to Clark Ashton Smith... I most highly recommend Vanguard Productions' "The Paintings of J. Allen St. John", a costly, magisterial on the great Burroughsian illustrator: http://www.vanguardproductions.net/StJohn2/index.html Cool!

I have a handful of these books with various covers but my selection is far from complete. I love that UK edition with the alien on riding with the woman draped over his lap. I have got to track down a copy of that. Thanks for feeding my collector's addiction! :) Princess of Mars is such a great pulp sci fi adventure.
