Mystery Paperback Bookstore Birthday Gift Certificate
A bold landscape bookstore gift certificate styled like a vintage mystery paperback, with a wrapped book, keyhole seal and room for amount and dates.
A landscape gift certificate for an independent bookstore, made for a birthday present such as a mystery book subscription. The left side shows a book wrapped in brown paper and tied with twine, with the recipient's name in huge condensed letters, a typed clue slip tucked under the string and a red serial stamp. The right side has a big GIFT CERTIFICATE headline, a mustard block for the dollar amount, a short description of what the gift includes, dates, a signature line and a brass keyhole emblem. Heavy condensed type, flat color blocks and a long diagonal shadow in cream, midnight teal, mustard and red give it the feel of a mid-century paperback cover.
