66Celebrating - PENGUIN BOOKS - 60th Anniversary - Modern Classics - Modern Minis - Purple Haze
In today's video we go back to July 1995, when Penguin Books celebrated their 60th Anniversary. This was a great time to be a collector; rare penguins were cheap and plentiful and Penguin as a company were starting to embrace their past.
During this time, I was a retailer and my own shop, Purple Haze, put on window display of both vintage and the new Penguin 60's titles and this generated quite a bit of attention, including from the local press.
Original point of sale, sub sheet forms and of course the books are all examined here, alongside some dodgy photos of me from 27 years ago!
I do hope you enjoy it!
