Cover Description

"W" (light green), "H" (red), and "Y" (light blue) in letters with a tear across their centers, then "a Mystery" above "Game" in white to the right, and below, "presented by" (black) "ALFRED HITCHCOCK" (white). The latter appears to the right of a light yellow circle in which the famous Hitchcock head profile appears. All of that is on a blue sky background with brown clouds.

Below, the top of a roof appears, with two triangle-topped windows and a chimney, in gray, with a decorative fence on top of the roofline.
