I think the U.S. cover would grab me first as it's so in-your-face, big and bold.<br /><br />But when I look at the British cover more thoughtfully, I like it. It makes me think about what the book is about. It is quaint and does evoke the Depression.<br /><br />But I also am turned off by the blurriness. First I thought it was my glasses. Then I realized it was the design and think it might turn off people who are seniors or have visual problems because we/they wonder if it's us or the cover design that is blurry.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1999659125625323494.post-27359895655083479472016-11-02T12:40:42.139-07:002016-11-02T12:40:42.139-07:00I've lost track of the number of people Denis ...I've lost track of the number of people Denis and I have taken on Route 66, and they always want to stop and have their picture taken by one of the road signs!Cathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01774383554326288663noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1999659125625323494.post-52788993745193409222016-11-02T04:51:05.652-07:002016-11-02T04:51:05.652-07:00Oh, there is something about that Route 66 signage...Oh, there is something about that Route 66 signage, isn't there, Cathy? It's such an iconic route, and its history is just woven into US history. That fact alone would probably nudge me to the US cover. Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
