This (both for the object created and the lessons you draw from it) is one of those times. Thank you, James. Once in a while the Internet throws up a new possibility that pleasantly boggles the mind.

It came out great - and I already got a funny look on the Underground for appearing to write in a vintage copy of Orwell's 1984 :) I decided it would be easier to upload the front and back covers separately and not worry about the spine - which means you don't have to be an InDesign whiz if you don't mind skipping the authentic spine... Thanks again for the inspiration! I thought this was such a great idea I rushed off and made my own - and it arrived yesterday.

An unconsidered revenue stream for Penguin too? Do you think they would allow people to reproduce covers for a small fee for this kind of thing? Would you pay? Eoin Hey James,

This is slick. An unconsidered revenue stream for Penguin too?
Do you think they would allow people to reproduce covers for a small fee for this kind of thing?
Would you pay?
