    Some guy's name is supposed to be hidden in George Harrison's hair on the cover of the "Revolver" album. I've never been able to see it. Has anyone else seen it?

    Question #114746. Asked by serpa. (May 17 10 8:46 PM)

    The cover illustration was created by German-born bassist and artist Klaus Voormann, one of the Beatles' oldest friends from their days at the Star Club in Hamburg. Voormann's illustration, part line drawing and part collage, included photographs by Robert Whitaker, who also took the back cover photographs and many other images of the group between 1964 and 1966, such as the infamous "butcher cover" for Yesterday and Today. Voormann's own photo as well as his name (Klaus O. W. Voormann) is worked into Harrison's hair on the right-hand side of the cover.

    This site have a clear and large picture of the Revolver album cover. George Harrison would seem to be the Beatle in the bottom right-hand corner.

    Looking through his thick mop-top hair for a hidden person's name is like looking for a needle in a hay stack.

    Good luck.

    This webpage has a huge image of the cover (it takes a while to load).

    You can see the name Klaus O. W. Voorman in capital letters (on two lines) in George Harrison's hair on the extreme RH side edge, to the right of where Ringo Starr is sitting.

    NOW I see it! Thanks gtho4. It's right where you said it is and both names are right side up, too. I was looking for something hidden like Al Hirschfeld's NINA. I can see the hidden images on the Santana album cover!
