Cover Art
The cover art was designed by MandOverBord. About the girl, Christensen explains: "The photo is from around 1920. It depicts the older sister of my grandmother on mother's side. She died at about age 14 of tuberculosis. Her real name is Vera. There are two or three copies of the photo in my family. I have one hanging in my apartment. The same photo hung in my home, and when we were searching for a cover for our first release (the 1993 promo), we felt it was a great idea to use the picture of her as a sort of mascot or logo." The picture was reused for the cover of Dizzy Mizz Lizzy and also appears on later compilation albums of the band.

Famous quotes containing the words cover and/or art:
“You may call a jay a bird. Well, so he is, in a measure—because he’s got feathers on him, and don’t belong to no church, perhaps; but otherwise he is just as much a human as you be. And I’ll tell you for why. A jay’s gifts and instincts, and feelings, and interests, cover the whole ground. A jay hasn’t got any more principle than a Congressman.”
—Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
“History develops, art stands still.”
—E.M. (Edward Morgan)
