Scanning for gold

I have been trying to work on my assignment, so I have scanned a lot of examples of book design and typography. Well not that many, it takes a while to scan & there is always the pesky shadow caused by the spine.
Anyway, I am fielding suggestions, yet again, if anyone has any amazing examples of good or bad book layout.

i could never get into scrapbooking as a hobby, as soon as I set my hand to a picture the inverse midas touch hits.

Indecent, er, actually rather decent really

While not exactly rewarding, working on my assignment has had one or two fruitful moments. Today it was this discovery about the Indecent Publications Act.

From Censored - by Paul Christoffel

Despite the clumsy inclusion of the phrase "or sound recording" throughout the provisions of the Indecent Publications Act, few sound recordings have ever come before the Tribunal. The first was in 1972, when Step by Step Instruction in Sexual Technique, by Miss Tuppy Owens, was found indecent.


I'd love to hear it, if there are any copies out there.

Actually, I had been considering writing fiction about Tony Hutchins. I think Miss Tuppy needs to be incorporated.
