(urth) Wolfe covers

[Son of Witz]

This Devil in a Forest cover is excellent. The sort of thing I'd like for The Knight.

Did you by any chance get and/or read these versions when they came out in the (I presume) 80s?  I just wonder if that helps give a certain sentimental/nostalgic value (which I would completely understand).

A few at least are better than the standard ones we see over and over again:  http://www.flickr.com/photos/hoofandhide/.  The non-English versions from about page 4 onward are generally FAR better than the English versions.
