It's modern and bold, the font is very legible and elicits the appropriate era, and perhaps most importantly, the cover image looks great when reduced to a small size, which is necessary these days.

You have the wrong single-quote character before the 60; it should be an apostrophe (i.e., pointing down to the left), and what you have their is an opening single quote (pointing down to the right). It's an easy typographic mistake to make; most systems, when you type an apostrophe character after a space, assume you're opening up a quote, for which the single quote would be correct... but '60s is an abbreviation, and thus gets an apostrophe.Nat Gertler (Sitcom Room alum)http://www.gertler.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19336675.post-77755112416379190802012-05-20T15:17:37.328-07:002012-05-20T15:17:37.328-07:00Awesomeness.
