Well, I have a copy of the original cover from the book, thanks to Michael @ DR. The book was (and may still be) called: New And Used - The World Of Designers Republic The cover is basically a mixture of their PWEI work, and the cover to the Joey Beltram single on Warp. (even a bit of their early design aesthetic, Age Of Chance era covers) It was to be priced £33.95, and it was to cover their work from 1986-1994. They were planning to include some multimedia content and also a collection of some of their fonts & 'clipart'. Now if they'd only get off their asses and put the damn thing out. I'd fully expected that they'd at least release it on their 10th anniversary. If anyone else has been checking their website, though, you fully understand how pathetically slow they are. : ) Ian
