Greatest record sleeve ever

( and not album cover, this was a 12" inch single):















Still kicking myself for not buying a huge wall-sized version of this I saw once on ebay, like a mega- flyposter probably intended for tube stations. But I loathe ebay - if I see something I like, I want to buy it and not get involved in some protracted bidding scrap with a nerd perhaps more nerdy than even me, possibly with software that will snatch my lusted-for booty out from under me [entendres sort of intended!). BOO! That the entire infrastructure of the once-mighty American economy hangs on the withering thread of what is basically an electric raffle is terrifying.
