Shirley Temple and the Beatles themselves are more than once. Lennon wanted Hitler but I don't think they had any actual shots of that one.

One outtake shot showing Gandhi.

People appearing more than once? John Lennon, George Harrison, Ringo Starr & Paul McCartney. I want to say Marylin Monroe is on the cover, but she's so pervasive in pop culture, I may just be making that up...


ETA: I didn't look at anyone else's answers before posting- I see I wasn't wrong.

I could be wrong. I never owned the cover, but I did have the music.

When Sgt.Peppers was released I was but a 'umble schoolgirl and couldn't afford to buy it. However, Ward "Pally" Austin on Sydney radio 2UW kindly played a track a day, every afternoon around 4.30pm. If I hurried from school, caught the early train and ran home from the station I would arrive just in time to set up my little reel-to-reel tape deck, prop the mike in front of the radio and hit Record. Or to be precise, drag the joystick to the Record position, CLUNK!

And then sit absolutely still, stifling the odd cough while joy and Beatle music filled my soul.

Oh the thrill of hearing for the first time that thundering chord at the end of "Day in The Life".
