The cover features two vignettes at the top, showcasing the elegance and sophistication of Lady James Douglas and Lord Woolavington, both prominent figures in the British social scene and avid horse racing enthusiasts. Below the vignettes, a reproduction of a painting by the renowned artist Alfred Munnings, entitled "Humorist and Donoghue Going Out for the Derby, 1921," takes center stage. The painting captures the anticipation and excitement of the Derby race day, with jockeys Humorist and Donoghue making their way to the course on horseback, surrounded by a sea of spectators.

The cover's intricate design and attention to detail transport us back in time, allowing us to experience the thrill of the Derby race and the excitement of the 1920s. This iconic image is a testament to the enduring popularity of horse racing and the role it played in British culture during this era.
