Per jacket blurb, Vogue Magazine referred to Campbell as "that ace chronicler of the social gaffe and the unforgettable embarrassing situation." The dust jacket illustration by Ronald Searle is a superb caricature of a sandwich board-wearing Londoner, down on his luck. Dust jacket is now housed in a removable, clear archival sleeve.
