    Welcome to my Cover Archive!

    Share

    I've added new sections. Check out and comment on my cover commentaries and the Science Study series.

    More covers added 12.5.09; and now there's a recently added page!

    Use the drop-down navigation above to browse covers by year, by select designers, and by other more 'synthetic' categories. Note that only the 'Time Flies' chronological section is fully updated. There are currently well over 1,000 covers in the archive. The vast majority of images are scanned from used books I've found here and there. The collection is always growing, but can only ever represent a fraction of what's out there.

    This archive is about graphic design. As such, each book is tagged with a date and, where possible, a designer (or design firm). If a book is a reprint that employs an earlier design, I've attempted to use the date of the design. The jackets are the property of their respective publishers; and are here as an educational tool and as things to be enjoyed.

    If you notice a mistake or omission, please let me know and I'll try to update the archive in a timely manner. Also, please feel free to send me thoughts, comments, or covers/books to add to the archive.
