Top is the final cover, bottom is an earlier comp that Gregg submitted - note how the red letters spell Down and the black letters spell Town, so that the title actually appears twice! Gregg tried to hire an illustrator for this project but ended up knocking out this illustration himself in a few days. The novel tells the history of a small southern town from the mid-nineteenth century through modern times.

Nice. Kind of like that bottom one too.
Very nice. I like how the title and clouds interact/overlap subtly too.
I also like the play with the letters! Pity it was changed.
