The Godfather

Author: Mario Puzo
Cover Artist: S. Neil Fujita

Simple but bold, the design for The Godfather’s cover art was designed by S. Neil Fujita – and it was so striking that it carried over to become the poster for the film franchise. Featuring a heavy, gothic typeface and puppeteer’s hands, the imagery has become iconic for The Godfather, and rightly so; this was a book worth drawing attention to.
