Good Show Sir Comments: Cover art, suitable for framing, from the artist’s website.
From his biography:
Peter died much too soon but at least he was sitting in a bar with a drink in front of him. There are worse ways to go. At his funeral the vicar said he was probably “getting in the rounds” in heaven. I like to think he’s painting there too … He was intelligent and widely read and a regular member of his local pub’s quiz and cricket teams, though he would say that was mainly for the beer! He died in March 1998 in Skegness while he and some colleagues were working on a mural at Butlins, relaxing in the hotel bar after work.

L’Angelo Mysterioso Comments: Sung to the tune of Nights in White Satin:
Nights with the Sasquatch
Never reading the end
Novels are written
About Big Foot’s girlfriend
Good Show Sir covers
Make my eyes so sore
Just what bad art is
I can’t say any more
Please don’t judge me
Yes don’t judge me
Oh don’t judge me
Noooooooo!

Kat’s Art Direction: “Okay, you’ve used the front of her shirt to make shoulder pads and recycled the scraps to make some useless pouches. Good work. But you know what this cover needs? What it really, really needs? … SHINIER LETTERING.”
