 | | The jacket is a lovely full-color illustration of a man and woman conversing as another woman eavesdrops. | | | The jacket is lovely, with a bright full-color illustration of a gallant knight on horseback and a woman sighing dreamily in the background. | | | The jacket is illustrated dramatically with a red-haired prince of a man looking sternly into the distance as several women eye him in the background. |

| | Antiques Roadshow/Antique Speak: Dust Jacket |
| | "Dust jackets became little artistic wonders unto themselves, often with an illustration not to be found in the book," Malinowski explains. | | | Marsha explains that it is a book's only removable part, and is also referred to as a "book jacket" or "dust cover." The paper cover protects a cloth or paperbound book on its journey from publisher to buyer and also protects it from handling by its owner. | | | Blurbs about the author and the book itself were added. |

| | ED WERNER'S THE BOND MARKET |
| | This has an interesting dust jacket illustration, depicting the lower one-third of a blond women's head with pink lipstick, ending above where her navel would be. | | | The jacket, designed by Leo Manso, shows a stylized illustration of a scuba diver, complete with spear gun in the background, with octopus tentacles reaching up for him in silhouette. | | | One has a dark brown silhouette of a girl facing away with her arms upraised at the elbow and some foliage surrounding her, like that found on the dust jacket, possibly meant to depict Honeychile Rider. |

| | A small novel, written while the author was in hiding, about a father and son, and reportedly dedicated to his own young son, whom he was unable to see at the time, for reasons of security. | | | Reznikoff was so little-known during his lifetime that he published much of his work himself, although he has come to be considered one of the leading poets of the school defined by William Carlos Williams and epitomized by Louis Zukofsky, among others. | | | The first American edition of his second book, winner of Britain's Booker Prize and the first book in his ambitious sequence of novels of the Muslim world, which culminated in The Satanic Verses and the death sentence that was imposed on him by Muslim fundamentalists. |

| | Dust Jacket Endorsements - The Faithful Word.org |
| | Dust jacket endorsements are not the test of biblical orthodoxy--that test is reserved to be conducted in the light of the Scriptures alone. | | | Dust jacket endorsements of Christian Hedonism represent only a tiny minority of published authors and theologians | | | The single most asked question I have received regarding this web site is: If Christian Hedonism has so many biblical flaws, then why do so many contemporary theologians have endorsements on the back covers of Piper’s book? |

| | If you prefer the look of the books minus their jackets, then the only good reason for you to keep them is, as others have said, if you want to consider your books as a collection with a potential resale value rather than as a library solely for reading. | | | Even if it's saved, the jacket might be carefully put aside lest it become rumpled and torn as the book endures a daily commute to work in my messenger bag. | | | However, my father collects and sells books, and if any of the books are worth anything or are likely to become worth something (already rare, first editions of quality bestsellers/important authors/important subject matter), they will be worth more with a dust jacket. |

| | Identify Fake Facsimile Dustjackets on Books |
| | The edges of many original dust jackets have irregularities that reproduce on ink jet copies. | | | Even though these copy-jackets have no collectible value, they improve the appearance of jacketless books (while protecting them), and that may translate to greater salability in the marketplace. | | | Consequently, uniform solid color fields printed by offest lithography, no matter how large or small, appear to have thicker, more defined borders or edges when magnified. |

| | I think the usual question is: "When did publishers first sell books in dust jackets?" The circulating library example is a borderline case, the printed jacket is certainly historically important, and could have motivated a publisher, but the books were not (an assumption) purchased by that library in dust jackets. | | | In the case of modern books, which is to say virtually anything in the late 19th or 20th century, the value of the dust jacket to a collector may actually be many times the value of the same book without a jacket. | | | It is clearly a printed DJ, and it notes that this copy of the book has inserted plates on tissue. |

| | Jones on Making Dust Jackets for Books |
| | A book made as suggested here, using both an inner paper dust jacket and an outer mylar jacket, looks very much like a commonplace hardbound book. | | | Vinyl sticks to xerographic copies, pulling the ink from the paper, and it is slightly acid, speeding the decay of the paper. | | | Ideally, you should first close the book, then wrap the jacket (with fold A already completed) around the book, and then fold in the ends, cracking the cover open only as far as needed to tuck the large end flaps in between the cover and the pages of the book. |
