Classic Vintage Original Framed Penguin Books Set of 3

About the Item

Penguin Books founded in 1935 and known for their iconic design of two solid bands of colour sandwiching a band of white. The most common was orange for Penguin's fiction, green covers for crime novels, pink for travel and adventure, dark blue were biographies, red for drama, purple for essays, and yellow was for miscellaneous. We have sourced the most sought after titles from 1935-1960s, and conservation framed them, with a high quality mount, acrylic glazing and wood box frame. They look fabulous in a set, pick any three books from the images shown and then pick from the below framing options. Black frame - White mount Black frame - Off-white mount Black frame - Black mount White frame - White mount White frame - Off-white mount White frame - Black mount All these books are vintage and show signs of age (which make them look all the more beautiful!!!). The above pictures are examples only and may not be the exact copy you receive, but of same quality. Please email to discuss title choice and to see exact images.
