Significant Summer Developments 3


At the end of the summer I went back to the family home and found a number of  old and worn Penguin books from the 1940s. They are in a fantastic dilapidated state.  I photographed the fronts, backs and spines, but was also attracted to the adverts in the back which has also begun to feature in my work alongside the newspaper bookmark from that period













More recently I bought  some penguin paperbacks from the same period on eBay,  I was disappointed to discover that the description promising very poor and torn  didn't quite live up to my expectations
