Languages
The language titles were initially given black and white coloured covers (like the other standard non-language titles) which were used in 1938 and 1939 (see German below). These were replaced by the distinctive blue and yellow coloured wrappers, between 1939 and February 1943 (see Arabic below). They had a diagonal colour split design across the spine and the front. These were replaced by the oblong panel series - appearing between February 1948 and 1950 (see Arabic below). The circular Two Towers logo (see Arabic below) was replaced sometime in 1962 by the square tower (see Afrikaans below). In 1970/71 the final logo the interlocking jigsaw pieces (see Gaelic below) is seen.
