My custom book cover was partially created from an old 1950 unused pulp magazine cover.The book title text was created using the "True Crime" font and the author's name was created using "Adobe Garamond Pro" book font.I changed the cover of the original book because it was a horrible mash-up job.The original cover looked liked someone took about 5 minutes to put together and didn't have any sort of "crime pulp" theme to it at all.The original book cover can be seen on page 2 of the book.I hope you like my version...Flyboy707November,2011 Views: 62
