The artwork for this special edition features a photograph taken in 1997 of the prototype 'pill tray' from the original pharmaceutical-style CD packaging. The gatefold images show the packaging in manufacture, and the inner sleeves feature a reproduction of the 'patient product information' leaflet that was included with the album.

A masterpiece.
