New Directios: New Cassics book covers by Alvin Lustig


LOVE these dust jacket designs by Alvin Lustig from the 40's/50s. They are so simple but the combination of colour graphics and textures within them is beautiful. Considering some of the designs are nearly 70 years old, it's amazing how they still look modern and relevant today. The groundbreaking designs did wonders for the sales of the New Directions books when they were launched.
