The cover gives the spelling “Air Mail”, the literature mostly “Airmail”. Pepl is represented with “Bike Breaker” (Radlbremser), which appeared again on the double CD in 2015.

The back cover names the composers: “Son Of Nudnicks” and “Prayer For Peace” by Mike Richmond, “Pink Monk” by Wolfgang Reisinger, “Bike Breaker (Radlbremser)” by Harry Pepl, “Ziemlich valosn (Rather lonely)” and “Under home” by Wolfgang Puschnig. The cover was designed by Jürgen Pankarz, the photos were taken by Rainer Rygalyk; Pepl played through a Roland rack and Electro-Voice speakers. The back cover gives the studio as “Tonstudio Bauer, Ludwigshafen”, but Tonstudio Bauer is in Ludwigsburg, Germany.
