Meat did an interview with VH-1 Germany in 1995 or 1996 in which he talked about where the WTTN artwork comes from. Unfortunately, you could hardly hear his original statements due to the German translation, so I can't guarantee that this is 100% accurate:

Back cover - cover of True Detective (1945)
Front cover - cover of Mystery Tales (1944)
Martha - cover of Love Stories
Amnesty Is Granted - True Crime cover (?)
Left In The Dark - cover of some SciFi tale
Not A Dry Eye In The House - poster of a Joan Crawford movie*
I'd Lie For You - The Fighting Rangers poster
Original Sin - Gun Crazy poster

*The title wasn't mentioned or drowned in the German translation. I'm a huge Joan Crawford fan but I don't know which movie that poster belongs to.
