Check out this amazing photo of an incredibly obscure book that I'm sure none of you have ever seen before...

Ah, nothing says spring like babies -- they're sprouting up everywhere!
Thanks to the folks at Arcana (fellow Angelenos. Or Santa Monicians?) for sending me some great photos!

April 25, 2009: The Granta Oath
I do hearby solemnly swear that Granta is one of the best literary magazines around. These photos were taken post-Day-1 of the LA Times Festival of Books, at the party thrown by Granta and hosted by Equator Books in Venice, California.
This is John Freeman, the American editor of Granta, holding the latest issue of Granta. How cool is that!
This is Lizzie, my very obliging girlfriend, who accompanied me to a party where she knew nary a soul.
And this, of course, is me.
Do oaths count if you're missing your pinky?

Thanks to Candace, from the blog Book Booker Bookest! As she mentioned, I don't have that many photos from kids books. So, consider this an invitation to help me fix that -- send your kid lit Corpus Libris photos!

Awesome shot, Autumn! Thanks for the follow-up submission! Does this mean that we booksellers are going to have to get beefier and beefier in order to keep up?

Here are a couple of images that people turned me on to. Thanks Mashanda and Elyse! Alas, I had a hard time tracking down the original sources, but there are links to the blogs that they were found on.

Many Many Thanks
Whoa whoa whoa, what's going on with this one? One co-worker plays both roles in this cover!
Thanks to everyone who has enjoyed this blog in its first few months of existence!
First, to my co-workers who always indulge me when I run around the store with a camera and a stack of books.
Second, to those of you who I DON'T work with who bothered to send me photos. Chanel, Andre, and Autumn. I love you for it! And for all of you who MEANT to document your favorite covers in 2008, you'll never believe this, but 2009 is officially the Year of Corpus Libris Photos. It says so on Wikipedia. I swear! You still have 11 months to e-mail them to me!
Finally, to all of you who posted links to Corpus Libris on your blogs and websites. Sincerely, Thank You.
