Two great finds at the local secondhand bookshop this weekend. The Hopkins on the left is from 1966 and has a detail of a painting by the wondrous Ivon Hitchens on the cover. The one on the right is from 1966, with a cover by Stephen Russ. The Hopkins has a good collection of his letters, diaries and notebook entries too. £1 each. Bargain! #penguinbooks #penguin #poetry #poet #gerardmanleyhopkins #english #verse #bookcover #design #typography #colourful #bookdesign #secondhand #bookshop #books #paperback

Yes, you’re right - I *will* be thrilled at ‘dust-proof bookcases’. Whatever next, a levitating hatstand? Surely such things are impossible! #carpentry #science #books #bookshelf #bookcase #retro #ad #advertisement #print #1940s #1950s #literature #reading #furniture #dust
