“The design on the front of the jacket is a detail from `Pictures for Schools’ exhibition poster, for the Royal Academy, 1966. Only thirty copies were needed, so it proved to be more economic to screen-print the sheets in dark olive green, leaving white paper for the lettering and also an empty white octagon into which this motif could be dropped. The motif, essentially an eye-catcher, was rolled up in vermilion ink and printing done simply by foot pressure.” [dust-jacket]
