* DesignStudentOrgasm: The original 1959 Creator/DoubleDay cover is a very busy greyscale image of space that was probably done because it ''screams'' ScienceFiction, with spaceships, nebulae, and moving rays of light.

GenreAnthology of Creator/IsaacAsimov's works, first published in 1959 (printed by {{Creator/Doubleday}}). An alternate title is ''Nine Tomorrows: Tales of the Near Future''.
Two works of comic {{poetry}} begin this collection, both playing with the difficulties of writing. The nine numbered ScienceFiction stories each provide a different perspective on what the future might be like. Every story was chosen from the past three years of publishing. This collection was republished in the {{Omnibus}} titled ''Literature/TheCompleteStoriesVolume1''.

!!''Nine Tomorrows'' contains examples of:
* AdaptationDeviation: The 1966 German translation, ''Unendlichkeit x 5'', contains only five of the original nine stories and none of the poems.
* AdvertisingByAssociation: The Creator/DelRey cover from 1985 includes a {{Tagline}} pointing out that Dr Asimov is also the author of the national bestseller ''Literature/FoundationsEdge''.
* AlienSky: The 1972 Creator PanBooks cover features two moons in the background, one of which is nearly hidden behind Creator/IsaacAsimov's name.
* BilledAboveTheTitle: All of the covers, except for a UK Book Club cover, lists Creator/IsaacAsimov's name before the title. Creator/PanBooks, Creator/DelRey, and Creator/PublicacoesEuropaAmerica have covers where his name is around twice as large as said title.
* CoverDrop: In the Creator/DelRey cover from 1985, a monkey wearing a spacesuit with a [[InSpaceEveryoneCanSeeYourFace clear faceplate]] is looking over their shoulder at the audience with [[GiganticMoon the Earth in the sky like a giant moon]]. With a bit of ArtisticLicense, this could be intended to be the opening of "Literature/TheGentleVultures", where Captain Devi-en, an alien monkey, is wandering around the surface of the moon in his spacesuit.
* {{Dedication}}: This [[{{Anthology}} collection]] is dedicated to Betty Shaplan, for their helpfulness and kindness.
* DeliberatelyMonochrome: The original 1959 Creator/DoubleDay cover has a greyscale image of space with slight green tinting by the spine, while Creator/IsaacAsimov's name and the Doubleday icon are a solid bright green.

* FacelessEye:
** The 1969 Creator/FawcettCrest cover has an enormous building which has a cyclopean eye watching as people walk inside.
** The 1978 French translation cover, by Creator/PressesPocket, has an eye in space, crying into a sun, with a world similar to Earth used as the iris (no pupil).
* FullMoonSilhouette: The 1966 Creator/PanBooks cover has a [[MinimalisticCoverArt black background]] and a cartoonish sun. Inside of the sun, a rocket is blasting off, with black and purple smoke billowing up to obscure the more realistic red and yellow of the sun behind it.
* GiganticMoon: In the Creator/DelRey cover from 1985, this is {{Inverted|Trope}} by showing an Earth from the surface of UsefulNotes/TheMoon that's larger than the head of the person on the cover (and at least twice the arc-size it should be). This cover may have been [[CoverDrop inspired]] by "Literature/TheGentleVultures" from within this [[{{Anthology}} collection]].
* InSpaceEveryoneCanSeeYourFace: The Creator/DelRey cover from 1985 has a monkey wearing a spacesuit with a clear faceplate looking over their shoulder at the audience. This cover may have been [[CoverDrop inspired]] by "Literature/TheGentleVultures" from within this [[{{Anthology}} collection]].
* MinimalisticCoverArt: The 1966 Creator/PanBooks cover restricts the art to the inside of a single cartoony sun.
* ScienceCocktail: The 1960 Creator/BantamBooks cover uses beakers, erlenmeyer flasks, test tubes, and pipes to showcase how much SCIENCE is happening inside.
* SpellMyNameWithAnS: The title of "Literature/AllTheTroublesOfTheWorld" is accidentally published as "All the Troubles in the World" in the table of contents. It is correctly named at the start of the story.
* {{Tagline}}:
** "Stories of weird and wonderful futures" -- Creator/BantamBooks 1960
** "..876543210 9 tomorrows" -- UK science fiction book club 1964
** "The best science fiction stories of Creator/IsaacAsimov" -- {{Creator/Moewig}} 1966

** "Author of the national bestseller ''Literature/FoundationsEdge''" -- Creator/DelRey 1985 (overlapping with AdvertisingByAssociation)
* UsedFuture: The 1972 Creator/PanBooks cover has a junkyard of rusted equipment, including an old spaceship.
