A Rainbow Of Book Covers
Posted by JoyAs a graphic designer, I have a special love for the muted colors and simple graphics of vintage book covers. Whether used as framed art or made into a whole wall of covers, I could stare at these for hours. Check out this site for an archive of thousands upon thousands of old book covers.
This is great! I totally recognize the back of "Two-Minute Mysteries" !!!! I love that book!
