Vintage Book Covers
Happy Monday everyone, I trust this finds you well. To ease you gently (and colourfully) into the week, here are some more retro book cover online discoveries for your (and my) visual delight ! I hope you enjoy them.
There definitely appears to be more mid century book covers aimed at boys than girls. These Polish ones are lovely, I really like the two little guys in the tree.
A couple more girl focussed pages.
Tons of space books from the 50’s and 60’s. It appears that everyone liked making rockets.
A book about being a chimney sweep, not so much of a profession these days but again fab illustrations.
And for those of you who have been waiting for the kids to go back to school before you go on your late year holidays, here are some cars, planes and travel guides just for you. Gosh I do try to think of everyone : ) Comments welcome as always please.

Hello Craig! What a lovely post! It always makes me super happy and proud seeing some Czech illustration work on your blog. Can you mention Jiri Trnka or Jiri Salamoun’s work sometime? Love Marta
Thank you Marta, I will certainly check them out and if I like their style too then.. watch this space lol Any more recommendations along the czech lines, feel free to pass them on, it’s a whole new world for me : )
Thanks for the reply Craig! I think you might also like Miroslav Hanak’s work, he did beautiful illustrations of animals and wild life.
Thanks Marta I’ll give his work a look also. Keep them coming : ) and thanks for reading and commenting too
