I love this display idea. It is easy to do and circulated very well. Using all of the titles in the Chicken Soup series gave a unified and very 'bookstore' look. The next time I do this display, I'll stack many soup cans on the top shelf to give it more of a 'Warhol' look.
Hmmm the repetition of the similar covers already looks reminiscent of Andy Warhol, this could look cool as part of a pop art theme. Imagine other endcaps featuring pop art books and how easy would it be to make pop art style signs on the photocopier? One endcap could even be soup cookbooks with the Warhol soupcan pictures as a backdrop. I am inspired already!

Inspiration
I get inspired everywhere. It is a curse. So many ideas, so little time. Even lunch through the Arby's drive thru yielded this idea from a cup: "Happiness is just a curly fry away". It is also a heart attack away, but if you simply substitute "good book" you got yourself a display "Happiness is a just a good book away". Add a goofy yellow happy face to your sign and it's perfect.
At a new neighborhood pizza "boutique" they have a roll of butcher paper hung horizontally. They pull down what they need and write their daily specials. How cool would this be at the front of the library?! One could write the new books that came in, daily programs, fun quotes, etc. Someone with whimsical handwritting (Oh Trish!) could really do it justice.
