Fishing for Hooks

From now through the end of March, my book-design blog, Killer Covers, will salute the artistry of Detroit-born painter and illustrator Mitchell Hooks, who died seven years ago today at age 89. At least one new book cover, film poster, or piece of magazine art credited to Hooks will be posted each day, the first of those being his work on the 1956 Dell release While the City Sleeps. Enjoy it here.

Thanks for the kind thought, Patti. I'm doing my best. As far as I know, all members of my family are healthy.

Cheers,
Jeff
