Awful Library Books

Hilarious.
 

Books: a collection of cover art

Nice collection of book covers. Especially like Everymans Guide to Polystyrene Plastics and The Motor Car(s).
 

Picturebox Inc.

Never got around to linking to this before, but I did the front-end development for this site and collaborated on the design with Circle and Square, with Nathan Hamblen providing able and patient JS and back-end development.
 

Rare Type Specimens at the Open Library

Some really nice type, in a really irritating interface. Some of these are apparently downloadable as pdfs.
 

Bookstores in New York City (Manhattan)

It seems like this could come in handy sometime.
 

Pelican Paperbacks

evidence that templated design can be very, very good.
