Closed hardback book resting on a cream sheepskin rug. The book has seen some wear. It is a little scuffed and the cover has some browning from age. The spine and an inch-wide vertical strip on the front cover are of gray-green cloth. The rest of the front cover is a large illustration in black and white. To the right is a large, leafless, twisted tree. In full-length profile pressed with his back against the tree is Heathcliff, looking to the cover’s left. His head is thrown back and he is scowling and in the throes of powerful emotion. His long coat is blowing in a strong wind.

Just behind the shovel is the tombstone where one can read the name Catherine. Heathcliff’s back is to the viewer. The tails of his greatcoat swirl with his movements and he is scowling fiercely at an unseen person or thing to the left.Exterior view of the bookstore. It is a warehouse-type building. On the corrugated blue façade is a red banner with THE BOOK RESCUERS in yellow. Also on the banner are two emblems of the store, designed to suggest fire rescue badges. The walls of the store are corrugated white siding. The doors and windows in front are dark tinted glass. Two big metal donation bins stand by the doors. In white lettering on the glass above the doors and main windows is written PUZZLES KIDS LOCAL ART VHS LOUNGE BOOKS FICTION. On the lower left and right corners of the photo are cars parked in front of the store.
