Cover Art
The picture on the cover of the album features a man rowing a boat made out of washbasins strung together in a body of water. The photo was taken by Margaret Bourke-White and was part of a series of photographs taken after the Ohio River flood of 1937. The emblem showing the name of the band and the name of the album is very similar to the logo of the International Alliance of Theatrical Stage Employees. The cover was designed by John Flansburgh and Elizabeth van Itallie.

“If only I could vanish in darkness, and thick darkness would cover my face!”
—Bible: Hebrew, Job 23:17.
“The press and politicians. A delicate relationship. Too close, and danger ensues. Too far apart and democracy itself cannot function without the essential exchange of information. Creative leaks, a discreet lunch, interchange in the Lobby, the art of the unattributable telephone call, late at night.”
—Howard Brenton (b. 1942)
