covers
we do book cover design

Designer: Alan Hill

title: The Vatican to Vegas

author: Norman M. Klein

publisher: New Press, 2004

available at Amazon.com

The first time I saw this cover, I was annoyed by the fact that the type doesn’t stay in line with the perspective of the interior.

Now that I look at it again, however, I wonder if I shouldn’t be looking at the type more as a spaceship floating in the air, out of alignment with the floor.

I’m still undecided.

Regardless, a clever and appropriate solution for a subject matter that would commonly be given a more gaudy treatment.

Yuck! Hard to read and doesn’t fit with the theme of the book, unless its about bad special effects.

Special effects. I get it.

I like it, very fun. Reminds me a bit of the main titles from “Panic Room”...

It reminds me a lot of this, too: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1594200688/sr=8-2/qid=1152653129/ref=pd_bbs_2/103-4947127-6951867?ie=UTF8

This works alright. I am having a hard time differentiating the title from the authors name.
