I know many of you love reading Harry Potter (include me there too!). What do you think of the cover arts of the Harry Potter books? Are they beauty? Personally I like the cover of the UK edition of The Harry Potter and the Philosophers Stone. Others I detest.
Recently while surfing the web for some Penguin Classics, I came across some interesting images. One M. S. Corley, freelance illustrator and graphic designer from the US, has redesigned the covers of the seven books of the Harry Potter series as a project (that means you may not have the chance of seeing those arts on a Harry Potter book on a nearby book store). The most interesting fact here is that these covers are designed in the pattern of Penguin Classics covers. Penguin Classics have very unique cover arts which are identical in their broader formats but strikingly different from one book to another. Actually Penguin has brought out a volume titled Seven Hundred Penguins, featuring a collection of Penguin book covers from around the world.
I display here for you the seven cover designs of Corley for your viewing pleasure. The copyright of the covers are reserved with M. S. Corley.
