Splash Test Dummies promotional artwork - The Dummies: three men wearing old fashioned striped bathing suits, swimming caps and flippers. One of the group is lifting another in the air above his head. The man in the air salutes with his right hand. The other member stands next to them, carrying pool noodles and inflatables, with a snorkle and goggles resting on his head. To the left of the picture, bubbly text reads: 'Splash Test Dummies'. The background is made from soap bubbles and blue and light blue diagonal stripes.

Houdini’s Greatest Escape artwork: An illustration that shows the top of a crystal ball, within which we see Houdini (a white man wearing a grey suit) with his hands in cuffs, looking surprised. Surrounding him are disembodied hands holding a variety of objects: a fake gun shotting a flag that reads ‘bang!’, a key, a set of playing cards, a safe, an elephant and a goldfish in a bowl. A woman’s face peers over the crystal ball, only her eyes visible.
