Design Observer: John Gall: The Nabokov Collection -- A Slideshow
"The assignment [of this show]: redesign Vladimir Nabokov's book covers, all twenty-one of them. The solution: twenty-one specimen boxes, the kind used by butterfly collectors like Nabokov, each created by a different designer.
Each cover is a specimen box and the boxes are filled using paper and insect pins. John Gall, Art Director, Vintage and Anchor Books."
Go to the above link and see these beautiful book cover designs!
