The words 'God Complex' in a yellow serif font on a light green background. Its a Faber cover. I think that they are a bit dull to be honest ... but you know, one person's dull is the other person's classic.
Black and white image of an intense looking young man, on the light grey background are some partially obscured words from Spenders poem "In Railway Halls, on Pavements Near the Traffic"

The Friday Poem 'Portrait of the Poet as an Artist' by Chris Edgoose
Illustration of a 1950's style woman getting ready to stab a python with a dagger. I know right! Pretty racey for poetry (It's even got a yellow background!). I'll take it over an abstract thought doodle though.

Kim Moore with red hair wearing a green top and green check dungarees leaning against a tree
Photo of Samuel Tongue. He is wearing a blue shirt and has short brown hair. He is smiling and standing in front of a green hedge.
Black text on white reads: "Double first, 1957 by Beatrice Garland" with a small Friday Poem yellow blob over the 1957
Pathé News Visits the Ace of Spades
'The Importance of Being Earnest by Jeanette Burton' in black text on white with a big yellow Friday Poem blob over the right hand lower side.
