Examples of Book Branding/Editions/Collections/Volumes

I need to start considering what sort of branding I am going to use on all of my posters. The 'Wilks Paper Back Collection' doesn't quite have a ring to it, so I would have to come up with another word/name other than Wilks. Jonny showed me the Faber and Faber books called the "Faber Paper-covered Editions". These books all feature a banner down the right hand side of the book cover. Below are a few examples. The simple font on plain different coloured backgrounds looks classic and stylish. 


Another good example of a publishing company that re-prints classic books with their own branding is the Folio Society.


They carefully select and commission different artists to create book covers and small illustrations that often go along side the text. Their logo is simple, small and stylish, making sure that it doesn't interfere with the artists work.
