people i'd like to work with: JOHN GALL

I was going to do another post on publishers but I got side-tracked when looking through the Book Cover Archive and found a designer called John Gall, whose book covers are quite amazing. Click on his name for a short video about how he works and gets his inspiration.
He is the Art Director for Vintage, and as I've already done Vintage as a publisher this is a bit of a cheat, but I have to post these covers, they need to be seen! I especially like the Vladimir Nabokov ones. There is one for each of his books, all done in butterfly boxes (Nabokov was apparently a keen butterfly collector) and each reflects the content of the particular novel.
