The second cover, "Dreams of Long Ago" (alternatively known as "Cowboy Reading Record Lyrics," originally published August 13, 1927), illustrates a pensive cowboy seated by a gramophone. Both pieces are matted and housed in matching black frames, originating from the collection of the Norman Rockwell Museum of the South.
