Gatefold sleeve. The inside depicting Cisco and Colin shedding their Advent skins to reveal their faces. The abstract letter A in the title also coming from the hand would be used as the main Advent logo for future record labels. I just did the illustrations for this, Green Ink did the graphic design. <br>The last image is from the back of the CD case. I don&#8217;t know why it wasn&#8217;t used for the LP 1997 as they just use a close up detail. I don&#8217;t have a copy of the original artwork for this one. I had to post it out before I could get a copy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.jasonsystem.com\/JasonSystemimages\/fontsamples\/TheAdvent_NewBeginningsLP_01_cover.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\" noreferrer noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.jasonsystem.com\/JasonSystemimages\/fontsamples\/TheAdvent_NewBeginningsLP_01_coverSM.jpg\" alt=\"\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-7387b849 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:50%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.jasonsystem.com\/JasonSystemimages\/fontsamples\/TheAdvent_NewBeginningsLP_02_insideleft.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\" noreferrer noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.jasonsystem.com\/JasonSystemimages\/fontsamples\/TheAdvent_NewBeginningsLP_02_insideleftSM.jpg\" alt=\"\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:50%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.jasonsystem.com\/JasonSystemimages\/fontsamples\/TheAdvent_NewBeginningsLP_03_insideright.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\" noreferrer noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"400\" height=\"400\" src=\"https:\/\/www.jasonsystem.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/image.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-770\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.jasonsystem.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/image.jpeg 400w, https:\/\/www.jasonsystem.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/image-300x300.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.jasonsystem.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/image-150x150.jpeg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-7387b849 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:50%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.jasonsystem.com\/JasonSystemimages\/fontsamples\/TheAdvent_NewBeginningsLP_04_reverse.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\" noreferrer noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"400\" height=\"400\" src=\"https:\/\/www.jasonsystem.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/image-1.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-771\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.jasonsystem.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/image-1.jpeg 400w, https:\/\/www.jasonsystem.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/image-1-300x300.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.jasonsystem.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/image-1-150x150.jpeg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:50%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.jasonsystem.com\/JasonSystemimages\/fontsamples\/TheAdvent_NewBeginningsLP_05_CDreverse.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\" noreferrer noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.jasonsystem.com\/JasonSystemimages\/fontsamples\/TheAdvent_NewBeginningsLP_05_CDreverseSM.jpg\" alt=\"\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Advent &#8211; New Beginnings LP cover. 1997Created for&nbsp;@ciscoadvent&nbsp;#theadvent&nbsp;I enjoyed making these but never got a good copy of them, it was a time before it was easy to send digital copies.
