Crowdsourcing Spiffy New Book Covers For 50 Literary Masterpieces | Co.Design


Recovering the Classics is a joint project by the Creative Action Network, DailyLit, and Harvard Bookstore that hopes to attract designers and illustrators–namely, people like you–to crowdsource public domain covers for what they’ve deemed the 50 greatest literary works in public domain history.

Technically, these covers will then enter the public domain for you to use as you see fit. But for ease of distribution, the Harvard Bookstore will print you any public domain book you’d like with any cover you’d like for $15, with profits split between the organizations and cover’s creator. eBooks will be available for $3.
