Sometimes I buy books to read, and sometimes I buy them purely for the cover art and design. Here are a few more of my favourites. Some of them are pristine, some are battered, but I really don’t mind. From my bookshelf; a 1966 copy of Up The Junction
Love these book covers. I'm getting increasingly interested in old covers. The designs are so strong. Unfortunately not got the space or funds to buy and store them, so this post is a great way to see more. Are you aware of any books collecting images of the covers?
Love 60s crime novel covers, the inspiration for today’s Hardcase Crime covers, you can’t beat the originals though. Had the entire ‘set’ of apes novelisations as a kid (wish I still had them😩)

A man after my own taste. One or two of these are definitely worth reading too! "Pigeon's Luck" looks amazing.
