The title is discreetly blind blocked into the front panel of the book.
The book is presented in a clamshell case which features an inset transparent plastic panel printed with the characteristic coloured circle design die cut into the front face. It sits in a black paper tray and is protected by another transparent PVC hinged screen. It also comes with a black envelope containing twelve small sheets which feature all of the stickers commissioned from prestigious Japanese illustrators to accompany the publication of the trade edition of the book.
