More Quay covers





My copy of Suzanne Buchan's The Quay Brothers: Into A Metaphysical Playroom arrived yesterday, and it includes a page of book covers designed by the Quays (see this post). Unfortunately the images are tiny black and white thumbnails, but these are the few I've managed to track down online.

  1. Thankyou for posting these, they're so beautiful. I've just started reading the same book, and really wish there had been more examples of their illustration work included (and at least at a decent size and in colour!).

    1. Hi Emma, thanks for your comment. It is slightly baffling that they bothered to track down all those covers and then printed them so small and in b&w! I'm finding the book fascinating if a bit heavy on the academic jargon.
