I’m somewhat puzzled how Penguin weren’t sued by Disney.

They look so different when rendered clearly as opposed to printed in faded ink on worn paper with rough edges.

A buddy of mine recently wrote a blog post about some of the old covers in his book collection. I learned a lot from people commenting about the artists involved. And having seen the struggle self-pubs go through to get this right, it's a lot more interesting than usual to me.

There are lots more of them here. Apparently Pelham and Burgess both disliked the 'Clockwork Orange' cover.
