Wayback Whensday – Back Cover Bios

D. D. Degg December 27, 2023 1 minute 2 comments

Antonio Prohias, Morrie Turner, Franklin Osborne Alexander, and Carl Fallberg.

Paperback biographies from a book’s back cover.

Book Jacket Bios has the images where they can be supersized and also adds more biographical information.

Book Jacket Bios is an occasional blog about writers and artists. These biographies and other images come from an invaluable treasure and a cornerstone of our culture: real print-on-paper books.

Even at supersize, the Fallberg bio–the one I really wanted to read–is illegible. I mean, not a word.

  I agree the black type on the deep red is a major eye strain. So…
  The Daily Cartoonist links you to a copy of the original on Ebay where the back cover with black type on a cream colored dust jacket can be opened in a new tab and supersized. Our Christmas gift to you:
