    Gotta love book covers – they’re a work of art IMO. I wonder if there’s an annual competition for cover design?

    On a side note:
    I was browsing through the site and the beautiful photo of “Heft on Wheels” by James White immediately reminded me of the recent shot by Nadav Kander for Powerade.

    hmmm…

    It’s amazing to think all of these archives are just getting started and are already so extensive. Now that most businesses have entire departments dedicated to transferring their archives into a digital format, I imagine it’s only a matter of time before everything has its virtual place.
