Description

These two Signs use the same typographic elements across the top third of each cover; only the background colors vary. While the scenes below differ, both picture women in peril, something that does not occur in the story. Masked cowboys aim their rifles at a woman kneeling beside a bed; a man wrenches a string of pearls from his victim. Definitely not Sherlockian.
