Click for a closer look just at the corner. It's on the cover of a book called 'Tiger Man', published in 1981.

Easy, Tiger
I've been a cover pixie for Bam's wonderful It's Not Porn, I Swear site for a little while. When I am trolling around the local charity shops, I make for the bins of Mills & Boon paperbacks and buy any whose covers strike me as snark-bait, then I scan them and send them over for Bam to be all editor-like about them. Yesterday was my first Saturday troll for a couple of weeks and to my delight some people had clearly donated a ton of books in a New Year clean-out as there were lots of new ones. I have a thing for the 70s/80s designs which are often either very orange, very alarming in their depictions of apparently rohypnolled heroines, or both. So my eye was caught by one cover because it was orange and in the 70s design. Then I looked closer, as something in the corner caught my eye.
