Vintage Paperback Cover Galleries on Flickr

The wonder of Flickr is seriously never ending. Flickr user jl.incrowd has three, count ‘em three galleries of vintage book covers that I’m just drooling over:

Cover Gallery: the 1950’s and ’60’s
Nostalgia for the Scholastic Book Club, circa ’60’s & ’70’s
