Shinsuke Yoshitake x HobonichiCover on Cover “Red Ball” for A5 size
This is the decorated version of the Cover on Cover, an optional, extra covering that fits select Hobonichi Techo covers to protect them from wear and tear while instantly giving solid-color covers a fresh new look. (Not for use directly on book.)
This Cover on Cover features the illustration of two schoolchildren playing tamaire, a game in which children throw as many balls as they can within a certain amount of time into a tall net. The balls rolling around the ground make up a polka-dot pattern across the cover, and give the illustration a charming design.
“Red Ball” is great for sprucing up solid-color techo covers with Shinsuke Yoshitake’s charming design.
In order to preserve the design of this illustrated Cover on Cover, there is no opening located in the back to access the back pocket of the cover.

- Not recommended for leather or faux leather covers
The Cover on Cover has been specially measured for use on the Colors and Faux Fabric lines of thin covers. Other covers may not fit properly into the Cover on Cover. The PVC vinyl of the Cover on Cover contains plasticizer additives which may affect the color and quality of a leather or faux leather cover and cause a reaction in the dye.
