Browse the Book Cover Archive
The Book Cover Archive is a designer’s dream. It’s intended to promote the “appreciation and categorization of excellence in book cover design” and is edited and maintained by Ben Pieratt and Eric Jacobsen.
You can sort the archive in several ways. For this example, I sorted by designer and then zeroed in on the books designed by Chip Kidd.
