1984

A classic visual mystery where the reader guesses the book title.

Untitled (The Bee on the Comb)

Kit Williams, author of Masquerade: probably the most well know 'mystery with a real prize' book, published this similar format book shortly after, albeit with no title.

Readers are tasked with figuring out the book title, something that was revealed one year after publishing. The imagery is whimsical and stunning, in a similar style to Kit's previous books, and tells the story of a day in the life of a beekeeper named Ambrose, and how he and his bees are affected by personifications of the four seasons. The prize for readers - a golden 'queen bee' statuette and a unique titled copy of the book - would be awarded to the entrant whom Kit Williams judged to have expressed the title in the most interesting way.
