If you ever happen to send off to have Cheryl Tiegs sign her covers, I'd be curious to know if you get them back. Been waiting 10 months with no reply...although it did coincide with Covid so I won't hold it against her.

I think in addition to the styling of the SI nameplate, the overall layout of the covers also has some highs and lows. In general, I like clean covers with not a lot of extra writing on them, especially when it does not refer to the cover itself. Also, any pre-barcode covers get a slight bump just because they don't have that aesthetically worthless symbol taking up space.
In general, I tend to like action shots on the covers and definitely want the athlete to be in uniform, not street clothes. But can I list exactly what makes a great cover? No, but I know it when I see it. ![]()

I love getting SIs signed...I have several hundred signed (full magazines), most of the signatures obtained myself in person over the last 35 years or so of chasing athletes. Here are a few of my favorites from my collection:
