Quiz #24: Cover Art Reprise

It's time for a holiday edition of The Album Cover Quiz. If you're looking for something to do over Thanksgiving break with family, gather them around the computer and have a go at it. Good luck!

Round two. Score 1 point for identifying the photographer, 1 point for identifying the meta-photographer, 1 point for the album.

Round four. For 3 points, name a photograph which appears noncommissioned on an album cover and on two book covers.

There are 30 points possible. The person who first emails me the answer with the highest point total before next Wednesday, 12/1, at 8 am PST will win a copy of In-Public's 10 along with an original print from the book.

Happy Holidays. I'm off for the next few days.

What are these 'album covers' that you speak of?

It's an ancient creative form, old but hopefully not completely dead.
