Не очень удачная иллюстрация приведена, т.к. на том сингле концертная версия, записанная на десяток лет позже.

Cогласен.
Сингла с песней Stuck Inside Of Mobile With The Memphis Blues Again(записанной 17 февраля 1966 года.50 лет песне сегодня!) в том году не было(она из классного альбома Дилана Blonde on Blonde),так что обложку с этой песней взял с сингла,который вышел аж через 10 лет и в концертной версии.Надо было написать об этом.Спасибо за поправку.
