Penguin - coming soon....

When Penguin created their original affordable paperback in 1935 they published the covers in a series of colours. Dark Blue for Biography, Orange for Classic Fiction, Mauve for Essays and Belles Lettres, Green for Mystery & Crime, Red for Plays, Magenta for Travel & Adventure...and finally, Yellow for Miscellaneous for anything which didn't fit the other categories.

In addition they published an Arts & Science series called Pelicans. which were light blue and featured a Pelican logo.

Due to demand we wanted to make as many Penguin covers available as possible. This has created a backlog of processing. Many of the original covers need extensive retouching and repair before print. Therefore all the covers in this section are work in progess. You may still order any cover listed but we do not have a preview of the cover visible on the Art Meets Print website. Once you have placed your order we will forward a preview of the cover in question. As a result you may wish to modify or cancel your order. All Penguin covers vary in design details. Please contact us if you'd like a cover which is not listed.
