Description: Vintage Signet classic paperbacks are my absolute favorite. I love their illustrated covers and their use of color. Which makes them, in my opinion, so much fun to collect and display. These ten vintage Signet published paperback books were printed mainly in the 1950s and 1960s. That makes them all over 60 years old! It’s crazy that paperback books are able to survive that many years. Most of them are early printings! Read below for additional book deets and be sure to look at all the photos too! Thank You!
