A P. G. Wodehouse Coverage

OMG, you guys, this is so cool: A P. G. Wodehouse Coverage.

It's a fairly exhaustive collection of covers for P. G. Wodehouse books. The layout is a little confusing, but if you scroll down and click on any of the covers shown on the main page, it will take you to a page with all the covers associated with that particular book. If only there were some bigger images available!

The covers range from baffling to beautiful to fairly hideous. It's an awesome selection of different styles and interpretations of the characters. (I'm also amused that the German title of My Man Jeeves seems to translate roughly to "Jeeves does it all." Indeed!)

ETA: It might actually be easier to navigate via the list of countries, because then you get a list of titles. Either way, it's confusing.

I've spent hours here, it never gets old! I love the really crazy ones where you try and try to connect it to a story and come up blank.

You know how Kate Beaton (http://harkavagrant.com/index.php?id=279) makes up stories to match the cover of Nancy Drew novels? We should totally do that. Like, once a week someone posts a cover and then everyone replies with a theory of what on earth is going on.

I'm all for it.
