Designed by Robert Williams, the original Appetite For Destruction artwork is a cartoon of a robot rapist about to be attacked by a monster.

Eventually Guns N' Roses agreed to have the artwork on the inside sleeve and issued an alternative cover (as on the previous page) of a cross and skulls of the five band members.
