Gib me your favourite covers

brazilian portuguese. this publisher Abril Cultural made some very good looking hardcovers for several classics around the '80s. some good ones in pic related (top one is portrait of the artist)

It's weird, older editions of Wordsworth Classics have pretty decent covers. It's like the intentionally started making shit covers in order to become a meme. I was surprised to find some old Wordsworth Classic books at a second hand shop that didn't look like the work of a 14 year old's first attempt at using Photoshop.

That because they just plastered some paintings from roughly the same period and called it a day. I agree that they're still better than edgy_psycho_with_axe.jpg and the like.
