HISTORY OF ARCHITECTURE - Unused Covers
So back in the early days of this blog, I drew attention to a book that concluded what would have
been a 25 volume history of architecture. It appeared that publisher Ellipsis books, one of the most interesting presses for titles on architecture, was bought up by Batsford (later part of the Anova group, if memory serves). The series ceased publication. Tadgell eventually resumed his history of architecture with Routledge, albeit in a different format. The "Architecture in Context" series is being rolled out as I write.
These images are the covers of the two books (one book went through 2 titles, it seems) that were to be next in his series.

MOH - John Carpenter
The mighty John Carpenter. His film Cigarette Burns is arguably the best of the Masters of Horror series.

Cal Tjader - EXTREMES
Comp. CD of some of vibraphonist Tjader's earliest music and latest music. So good, it wins the coveted distinction of ALL KILLER, NO FILLER.
