In praise of Mitch Ansara

Just saw these awesome illustrations over on Veer. Illustrator Mitch Ansara has taken a bunch of movies, some old, some new, and created images that show what they would look like as 60's era paperbacks. They're slightly similar to my earlier post about Olly Moss' work I guess, in that they're both using retro designs to simply illustrate the general plot of a film. Either way, Mitch's work is simply great, and I really encourage you to head over here, to check out some more (like 16 or 17 more) work like this:





The illustration series is called "I Can Read Movies", by the way..
