"I don't suppose either designers or publishers have considered the matter of signing book covers of much importance," said Henry L. Parkhurst, teacher of cover designing in the school....Macmillan & Co. asked me why I did not sign the cover I designed for their new book, 'Casa Braccio,' by Marion Cranford. I merely neglected to do so." -Parkhurst as quoted in the article "Art in the Book Covers", published in the New York Times for December 22, 1895.
