Definately the Enso circle/tire, it just says it all. Don't like the use of Helvetica in the other one either, it's just too safe a choice.
ReplyDeleteCover design by Peter Mendelsund.
ReplyDeleteBoth are nice. Is that Paul Sahre on top or Peter Mendelsund?
ReplyDeletethe circle/tire, without doubt. elegant and without the woozifying effect of the jacket art.
ReplyDeletehmm, no offence to Peter Mendelsund (who is freakin awesome) but this seems like a very quick, throwaway concept. Doesn't really say anything to me…
ReplyDeleteThat Enso Tire is brilliant.
ReplyDeleteLooks like the cover of Scootering by Jon Stevens. Old Penguin title 1962 designed by bruce robertson.
