Designer and writer Charles Foster has very generously sent me a big box of Penguins and Pelicans which included this superb cover by Keith Whitehead (published in 1965).

Glad you like the books, Richard, and that they have gone to a good home. They were mainly in the category which a bookseller acquaintance of mine calls 'tired political', which means from his point of view they were virtually unsellable. However some have interesting covers. I bought that dictionary when I was a student. As you can tell from the 12/6 cover price, that was some time ago. Probably why I am tired.
