THE DISCREPANCY // 093
A January 2022 account explicitly describes three versions of the Nevermind cover: a dollar and hook, their absence, and their return. Other discussion recalls the missing element. The claim concerns an object in the image, not a different album title.
⌁
A faint 1991 sits below the waterline. Read the sleeve as an object, not a cropped search result.
THE EMPTY PLACE IN THE WATER
The reported sequence is bill and hook → absent → bill and hook. Draw where the object belongs before checking a cover. Its position, the line above it and the space around it may be more specific than remembering that money was there.
THE SAME FRAME, THREE TIMES
The official Nirvana release page supplies a cover reference. Match the same edition and full crop before comparing it with your recollection; thumbnails and alternate artwork can hide details. No intermediate altered cover has been authenticated here. The file preserves the reported return and points back to the original image.
Keep your first version
Record the detail before opening a reference. Keep the exact object, release or edition with your comparison. A first recollection and a later discovery can be followed as separate traces.
