Barnes & Noble Classics Titles

Lately I have been looking at a lot of typographic work from the 1900s as well as those that are inspired by the era. I came upon these wonderful classic titles for Barnes & Noble by Jessica Hische. 

"A series covers of classic books. The books were leather bound and the design was then foil stamped in two foil colors onto the full jacket and spine. This is probably my favorite project of all time and thanks to Jo the interiors are as beautiful as the covers. Each has marbled endpapers, painted page edges and matching ribbons and headbands"

As I was scrolling down, I exclaimed (in my head because I'm at work!), "this looks like Jessica Hische's work!" I'm a long-time admirer. These are gorgeous!
