Here are a couple of suggestions I recall from recent use:
- There was a design book published recently that has a metal cover that's
in an S curve. Unfortunately I can't remember the name (does anyone else
know it?).
- A recent Taschen publication Hartmann Schedel : Nuremberg Chronicle by
Stephan Fussel (ISBN: 3822812951) has a faux suede cover.
- Surrealism: Two Private Eyes by David Sylvester, Werner Spies, Rosalind E.
Krauss, Jose Pierre, Daniel Filipacchi (ISBN: 810969211) has a bronze faux
silk cover
If I think of any more, I'll let you know.

Subject: [ARLIS-L] Unique Book Covers
Greetings,
I am inrterested in doing an exhibition in our library NEXT summer on
books with unique covers/bindings. Titles I can think of off the top of
my head include the MOMA catalog covered in metal (from the 1960s?), the
Andy Warhol Museum book with the CD in the cover where Andy's eye should
be, a new book we just received -- Jiri Georg Dokoupil: Every Cloud Is a
Way (2002) -- covered in plastic with water or some other liquid under
it!!! AND the famed CREAM catalog published inside a plastic pillow.
Do any of you know of any other unique or outrageous art book covers? A
fun question on what is here a dreary, rainy, cold day!
Ray Anne
