Sign
Bob Dylan album cover.
Signifier
In this cover the signifier is the black and white image of the young man and woman, curled up and kissing in the back of a car. The letterforms, cracked and grungy but neat and bold in it's structure. Which is probably the result of a letterpress, handprinted in all it's quality. The colours are subtle and effective, darker red and navy.
Signified
The slogan "Together Through Life" hints at sum sort of subliminal meaning in the roadie image of the pair of young lovers. Maybe this is life? The best that it gets? To lounge in the back of a car getting cosy with your significant other. The image, black and white, blurring out the excess outside of the young couple; bringing them into focus as much as possible.
