Default Unique Dust Jacket

I know of no other dust jacket making such use (or any use, for that
matter) of the inside, and certainly none that fold up hiding half of
the size of the paper forming the jacket.



McSweeney's 13, the comics issue from 2004, has a large folded
dustjacket fully illustrated by guest editor Chris Ware. The folds in
the jacket also serve as pockets to hold two miniature comic books.

Simon Winchester's _The Map that Changed the World: William Smith and
the Birth of Modern Geology_ (2001) includes a jacket that unfolds into
a large reproduction of Smith's 1815 topographic map of England.

And Pamela Anderson's no-doubt ghost-written novel, _Star Struck_
(2005), also has a fold-out jacket, with lots of naked Pam front & back,
or, um, so I've heard.
