Alternative Text:
A cover from Look magazine. Across the top in white text is "LOOK", with each letter in a black box, then gray box, then black, and gray again. The alternating black and gray boxes include text and pictures from other stories in the magazine. One is for "Laraine Day: Leo's umpire" with a picture of woman's face next to a dog's face. The dog looks like a boxer with its dog sticking out. The other reads, "Their first baby: When life begins" with the accompanying picture of a woman with dark hair, reclining and smiling down at an infant, who has their fist to their mouth and a tuft of their dark hair sticking up. The bottom two-thirds of the magazine is a red and black image of Hiroshima after the destruction of the atomic bombing. There are lines where roads must have been, and a couple of buildings standing at the top corners of the picture, but otherwise, it is a mass of rubble. The text in white overlaying the picture reads, "INSIDE HELL. For the first time, a survivor's report on what really happened at Hiroshima when the A-bomb fell...Read this shattering account by a Japanese doctor and you'll know why there must never be ANOTHER WAR."
