I entered a competition to try and get a signed poster of the State of the Art cover (it's the coolest one!).
Could you possibly post a picture of the cover, please?

I forget the name of the artist (Stephen something I think) but his art is on all the newer UK covers from the mid-nineties. The covers from the eighties were... interesting.

My copies of Player of Games, Consider Phlebas and Use of Weapons all have Mark Salwowski credited for the illustration; they are in the same style as the State of the Art one that was posted.


Heheheh, I just noticed that each of them also says 'Not for sale in the USA' on them too. :lol:
