Couldn't decide whether to put this in Books or Arts... Arts won.


An artist I stumbled upon, M.S. Corley, redesigned the covers of the Harry Potter books to look like Penguin Classics. He also did the same for the Lemony Snicket series. They haven't actually been published like this... he just did them as kind of a fun experiment.

Some people have commented that, even though they're nice, Corley didn't capture the true spirit of Harry Potter. Meh, I still think they're pretty cool.

Here are my favourites of the HP series:

I'm not sure what penguin classic is... I don't think I've seen a book with that look before. Could be overlooking it though.
I'm sure I've seen some Penguin Classics that look like that before, but I can't find any pictures right now... the closest I can find at the moment are these.
