The Rent Collector

The Rent Collector

Salamander Hill Design, Elgin, Quebec, 2005

Description

This is actually my wallet, which I have had for years. It was sitting beside my computer when I was working on the concept for this cover and I couldn’t resist.

Juror Notes

The cover immediately evokes the title character with a single, yet personality-filled, object. The neutral type choice doesn’t detract focus from the wallet—a good thing.
