I'm probably misunderstanding you, but I believe this is the original design - I guess you're referring to a pre-release version. I have the individual remasters (sent to me to review), but I missed this. As I say in the notes above, Emil is visible in the reflection of a small mirror on the dashboard to the left of the steering wheel. One day I'll treat myself to the box and feature it here...

The human side. One interesting note is that the guy on the right used to be Emil Schult the designer but they replaced him with Wolfgang Flür who had joined the group after the LP was recorded. You can see the original art with Emil on the re-issue. Kraftwerk have always had a thing about re-writing history but it's nice to see Emil where he should be.
