The first-FIRST edition had a cover that is more similar to the now-famous image that was used for a later paperback edition and the movie posters.

I believe this is the first *UK* edition. The first-FIRST edition had a cover that is more similar to the now-famous image that was used for a later paperback edition and the movie posters.
