What I've done with the Bobbsey Twin books is to use the same basic graphic -- taken from one of the earliest books and then update the book title using a font very similar to the original. The first image is the scan of the original book cover. The second image is one that I twiddled in PaintShop Pro and added a different title.

On a similar topic, I'd love to have a couple of sample title pages shared. I've seen a couple of very well made ones in books downloaded from here, but of course when I'm thinking of them, I can't put my hands on them! In particular, I am impressed with the title pages that contain the MobileRead logo, since I'd like to make sure that anyone who winds up with a book that I've contributed is led back to the site.
