Gerry de la Ree was a science fiction and fantasy fanzine publisher.

Gerry de la Ree began publishing fanzines in Westwood, New Jersey, U.S.A. in the 1930s. One of his earliest zines was Sun Spots. 29 issues of this publication appeared, starting in 1939, and running until September 1947. It was followed by The Scientifiction Scout in 1942, After Ten Years: A Tribute to Stanley G. Weinbaum in 1945, and Space Flight...When? in 1946. Concurrent with Sun Spots he also published Beowulf, which became well known for 'the Beowulf Poll' featuring polls of fans, the results of which appeared in both titles. In 1948 he published Loki with co-editor Genevieve K. Stephens. Two issues appeared, one in Spring 1948 and the next in Summer 1948.

Gerry de la Ree began the 1970s by publishing the fanzine Clark Ashton Smith - Artist in 1973, devoted to the art of Clark Ashton Smith. He then turned his hand to running a small independent press publishing limited edition books by H. P. Lovecraft and Poe, as well as books devoted to art. He published several books featuring art work by artists who contributed to fanzines and prozines. One of the first was the book devoted to the art of Hannes Bok. In 1973 he published Grotesques and Fantastiques by Clark Ashton Smith, and in 1974 he released "Klarkash-ton and Monstro Ligriv", with previously unpublished poems by Clark Ashton Smith and art by Virgil Finlay, including correspondence between the two artists. And in 1975 he released Clark Ashton Smith - Poet, containing 21 poems by Smith an a 1915 photograph of Smith and his parents. In 1977 he released Edd Cartier: The Known and the Unknown. He also released books with the art of Stephen Fabian, Virgil Finlay, and other fantasy and sf artists.

Gerry de la Ree was also an art collector who specialized in SF and fantasy work, particularly the cover art from pulp magazines of the 1930s till the 1980s.
