I really like these Chekov covers for W.W. Norton by Rodrigo Corral Design’s Ben Wiseman:

But I think the alternates are pretty special too:

There is a very short interview with Ben at idsgn.

Update:

The good folks at W.W. Norton have just added Ben’s Chekhov covers to their Flickr design archive (thank you!).

These new editions are available in July 2010.
