Hey folks!

First pic: A black and white photo of Kate Bush, a white woman with dark hair and large eyes. She holds a rose in front of her mouth, obscuring it. Second pic: A still from the famous silent movie short, A TRIP TO THE MOON by Georges Méliès, showing a moon with a human face -- it's more like a human face that's been covered with cool whip -- with a bullet-shaped rocket sticking out of its eye. It has a kind of disgruntled look on its face. (Wouldn't you be?) This still is tinted blue, and  "The Wonder Stuff" and HUP are superimposed over it.
