Seven Hundred Penguins

A little while back the Penguin marketing department had it’s first dalliance with Flickr. I was geekily excited to see they had joined the Penguin Paperback Spotters’ Guild Flickr Group. In January they posted a request for favourite Penguin covers under the banner ‘Penguin700′ [flickr.com/penguinpaperbackspotters]. The response was unfortunately slightly lack lustre but that hasn’t stopped Penguin going ahead releasing their random selection of the ace Penguin book covers throughout the ages called ‘Seven Hundred Penguins’ [penguin.co.uk/penguin700]. It’s out in September. Expect to see more about this around the traps in the coming weeks. Below is one of my fave covers that I’ll be rooting for to see on display in said book.
