The grainy cover picture is coloured in red completely, showing a gentleman who supports a lady at bowling. Although there is a lack of details in this picture, it is still of a certain, charming charisma. Possibly the attraction might be just because of the missing details. In my opinion these kind of cover art has liveliness and authenticity, giving an idea of how transient a real live's moment often can be. The reverse side contains a magnified detail of the font and touches me because of the man's openly and honestly interested gaze.
