I think I've gotten an image of a beardless Sirius from the book 
jacket(American version).  You see a profile shadow image of a man 
with long, shaggy hair, sitting by a window, but he doesn't appear to 
have any facial hair.  Also, I figure Uncle Vernon would have 
mentioned a scruffy beard along with the "look at the state of his 
hair" comment when he saw the picture of Sirius on the news.

It is also possible that Sirius had a beard when he left Azkaban, but 
used his knife to shave at some point.  I would think it would be 
much more difficult for him to cut his hair with the knife, though, 
so it stays long and shaggy.

Any thoughts on this possibility?
