Fake book covers to give the illusion of risque reading

Now, I know fake books already exist, but they are for other usages, these book covers can contain perfectly mundane titles, so giving the illusion of a more risque inclination.

The most obvious one is a fake "Scouts in Bondage", closely followed (by the same author) by "Trawler Boy Dick".

I have decided to exclude Horatio Alger, on the grounds he was (allegedly y'r honour) a bit pervy anyway.

So, no longer need that ISO 9001 manual give away a mundane reading habit, simply put it in the fake sleeve and ate voila, your kudos are restored!

       Pondered on the 1902 classic "Grimm Tales Made Gay", but it's not very funny, hence excluded.

       WKTE - numerous examples of geeks reading PC World concealed in a soft porn magazine ...

       [8th] I think all your example may actually be not-so-bright geeks (of who there are surprisingly many) who have somehow managed to accidently fold their PC world inside their porn instead of vice-versa.   

       But that aside agree, fake covers, even fake books (empty boxes with book covers to fill out an otherwise empty bookcase) have been done.
