Fast forward to 2011 and those James Bond prints have finally been reissued as artworks in their own right.

Penguin Decades
Penguin are celebrating 75 years of publishing with the Penguin Decades series. They've re-issued key novels from the 1950s, 60s, 70s and 80s which they claim 'helped shape modern Britain' and define the period they were released.
Each decade's books are given a distinct look with the work of a different artist. The 1950s all have covers designed by Peter Blake – including the version of From Russia with Love shown above – while the selected books from the 60s, such as A Clockwork Orange and A Kestral for a Knave, feature the artwork of Allen Jones.
Zandra Rhodes' patterns grace the cover of the selected books from the 70s, while John Squire tackles the 80s.
The books cost £7.19 each, a reasonable price for a nice bit of design and a meaty read.
