Are you a philatelist?  Neither am I, though there are certainly worse fates in life.  

Fact of the matter is that you don't have to be a stamp collector to think this is a cool cover.  There's just something intriguing about this '30s styled image.  Add to that, original copies of the album were embossed with the "8s" emphasized.  Just an all around cool cover.
