HAWKWIND - SPACE RITUAL: SPECIAL MULTI FOLD OUT SLEEVE EDITION - RARE!!

What's on offer:

On offer here is a brilliant and very hard to find 1982 album "SPACE RITUAL" by HAWKWIND in very good condition as can be seen from the pictures. This is the rare multi fold out edition with full colour artwork and has been carefully stored in a plastic sleeve. The sleeve[8] was designed by Barney Bubbles and came in 3x2 panel foldout, the outer 6 panels being colour, the inner 6 panels being monochrome, the discs in psychedelic patterned orange & yellow inner sleeves were folded into this. It made Q Magazines 100 greatest album covers list.
                The outer foldout features an illustration of Miss Stacia flanked by the hounds of King over stage shots of the band.
                The inner foldout features three panels of a photograph of outer space with three illustrations on each panel headed by lines from a Hawkwind song.
                Inner panel 1: features a vintage photograph of a naked woman with listed credits.
                Inner panel 2: chac bacab – features an image of a female nipple as a planet, and a legend of the Earth as a living entity.
                Inner panel 3: kan bacab – features an image of a foetus suspended in space with the legend "The Universe resounds with the joyful cry I AM. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last. Naked I came out of my mothers womb and naked shall I return thither."
                Inner panel 4: Features a mandala with the legend "Everything exists for itself, yet everything is part of something else. The One and the many contain in themselves the principles of time and space. The way up and the way down are one and the same."
                Inner panel 5: Features a dedication from Lemmy to John the Bog, Supernova and Sue Bennett. zac bacab, tec bacab and bac bacab expounds upon religious and cosmological myths and sciences, starting with the William Blake poem "To see a world in a grain of sand, And a heaven in a wild flower, Hold infinity in the palm of your hand, And eternity in an hour", ending with the Alfred Whitehead quote "Give up illusions about ideas of order, accept nothing of inherited norm. Spread joy and revolution. It is the business of the future to be dangerous."
                Inner panel 6: features a winged superhero grasping an electrical cable and lightning bolts, perched upon an Earth situated in a void. This is a must for any serious fan or collector
