textbook cool


i love to 'mock up' books. in my school career, i was always thrilled when i was lucky enough to have cool-looking textbooks with interesting titles and plenty of photographs and illustrations. i miss some of those books, and i've realized they're almost impossible to track down years later. we turned them in and never saw them again. what happened to all those cool books? did they get (yikes!) burned up? or churned up and recycled into inferior volumes? if i had it to do over again, i would've saved several of them and just paid the replacement fee. here's a high school science book cover i conjured out of gathered images and imagination. i even titled it and gave it a fictituous publishing company. dig it.
