In July I posted
these four tremendous new covers for B. S. Johnson reprints. A helpful commenter told me they were the work of
La Boca. by chance, I was just admiring their
Louise-Brooks-meets-puffy-paint-in-a-shredder cover for the Booker-nominated
The Teleportation Accident. So it seems a good time to do a round up of their various cover art jobs.

Those Nicholas Blake (pen-name of
Cecil Day-Lewis) covers make me want to try his Nigel Strangeways amateur detective books again, even though past experience suggests that his non-Strangeways crime novels are far superior (see especially the sadly neglected
The Private Wound, out of print now for 25 years.)
