Question No cover on import from iTunes

I recently downloaded a book from the iTunes book store and, as usual for books sourced in this way, imported it into Calibre. The trouble is, it's lacking the cover that shows in iTunes and the cover I can download is not the same as the one in iTunes. Why wouldn't the cover come across? Others I've downloaded & imported have, but I think one or 2 others haven't.
Any ideas?

Probably because the actual ebook file has no cover in it and itunes is showing you a separately downloaded cover.

Would that be the case (epub has no cover) if I was able to use an Applescript in iTunes that exported album art to get the cover it had in iTunes?
