i remember having a link in my bookmarks ages ago for a book jacket designer and/or company. all i remember was that he/they specialised only in book cover design and was based in canada. any ideas?

nope. all i remember from it is that it had serif typography and a nice woodcut style picture for the logotype. i think the main page was a newsblog, with a bookjackets section.
