Front Cover

Since the sleeve for this single is pretty much identical to the LP release,
the relevant clues for this single have been copied from that page.

The Backgrounds As you look at the front cover, probably one of the first thing that strikes you is that John, Ringo and George all have white backgrounds whilst Paul's is blood red. Was there a reason to associate Paul with blood?

Out of Sync Again, like the front cover of Abbey Road and Revolver, John, George and Ringo are all facing towards the left whilst Paul is looking straight ahead, again implying that he is somehow different from the others. Why is this suggestion continually being put to us?

Hiding the Scar The photo of Paul in the White Album set was quite a brave move because it showed his lip scar so clearly. In this photo however there is a microphone covering his face, or more particularly, covering the scar. Was this a deliberate move to do more to cover it up since fans were now starting to learn of the conspiracy?

The Black This was the Beatles final LP to be released and the whole mood given is very sombre. The Let It Be cover was the first Beatles LP to be framed in black, possibly hinting at a mourning.
