The Hoard Potato wants Skulls and Rockets!
Almost every library I've patronized in the last four decades has used the same basic set of icons to delineate the various genre ghettos: a skull for mysteries, a stylized atom or a rocket ship surrounded by "atomic" rings for SF, and so forth. Most of them even seem to use the same company, with red ink on yellow stickers.
Why can't I find these icons on the web? I find several places selling library genre stickers, but not the classic old red-on-yellow designs.
I know they're OUT there -- I see them at my local library all the time, on brand new books.
