Cover Illustration

This issue's Akira Toriyama cover illustration was drawn for "Jump Carddass" in the 1991 #03/04 issue of Shueisha's Weekly Shōnen Jump. This issue featured chapters 305 and 306 and went on sale on 19 December 1990 in Japan. The illustration gets a quarter-page reproduction in Dragon Ball Daizenshuu 1 ("The Complete Illustrations")[1] and a smaller reproduction in Dragon Ball Chōgashū ("A Visual History").[2] In both of these reproductions, Goku's hand extends across the spine to the opposite page.
