Update and correction: The publisher's web site now shows a cover image (and still shows the release date as "Fall 2006").

It's a close-up of Peter Falk, definitely as Columbo, with cigar and raincoat, looking shrewd and suspicious. It reminds me of a black-and-white head shot of Columbo that a lot of you have seen, but this one's in color.

Thanks a lot Ted - great information!!

For ages I've been wonderin why there wasn't an autobiography - well it's about time & I simply can't wait
