Description

Great  vinyl - sleeve is well loved after 35 years, but has no tears, splits, scratches or stains.

1. Stretcher Case Baby
2. Sick Of Being Sick

This legendary item was given away to punters who attended a series of shows at the original Marquee Club in Soho, London in July 1977 to celebrate the bands first anniversary. Some were also given out via the NME as a competition prize.

Superb picture sleeve which appears to be a skull at first glance but when looked at more closely is an image of a lady looking in the mirror and her reflection. On the reverse is 2 black & white photos of the band in full manic live on stage action with the 'Stiff Records' logo and the wording 'ISSUED FREE AS FIRST ANNIVERSARY GIFT' underneath.

The labels have 2 more 'white-on-black' skull images - one with the band members heads on and the other with tracklisting details followed by the wording:

"EASILY DESTRUCTIBLE STEREO

NOT FOR SALE

Special snob collectors artifact of no historical/cultural value. Play it today. Throw it away. Why sell 'em when you can give 'em away."

In the run-out grooves there is the following etching/matrix numbers:

"DAMMED-1-1 I SAID YOU BETTER HAVE THE ALBUM I SAID YOU BETTER HAVE THE ALBUM

DAMMED-2-1 ONE YEAR OLDS"
