Summary
A card insert, one of six designed by the company Blue Source using photographs by Donald Milne and John Rankin Waddell that are included with the vinyl record Different Class by Pulp. Each insert features a photograph of a band member on one side together with printed details of their role in the band and the instruments that they play. The other side features another photograph that includes members of the band and has two of the song titles from the record printed at the top, plus some additional text below. Each of the cards can be inserted into the outer cardboard sleeve for the record to allow for the creation of twelve different front covers. This insert features a colour image of Jarvis Cocker standing behind a bus on one side, with the other side featuring a colour image of Cocker with band mates Russell Senior and Nick Banks dancing in a room with pink walls. On this side of the insert, the titles of the first two songs on the record (Mis-Shapes and Pencil Skirt) are printed in white.
