HIPGNOSIS Unknown ORIG. ALBUM COVER ARTWORK Prog Psych 70's/80's UK Heavy
SEE OUR OTHER RARE RECORDS AND MUSIC MEMORABILIA
From the collection of a longtime music business art director, here is an unreleased album cover "Comp" designed by the legendary UK art directors Hipgnosis. A comp is a proposed album cover, submitted to record company, band or label by an art director. As you can see from the stamp on the reverse, this was created by Hipgnosis, but the art director from whom we obtained this didn't use it, and couldn't remember what artist it was created for. We could find no album cover using this artwork in our research either. The strip along the top says RAF at the left and "Rough sample of matting" across the middle." We have never seen original Hipgnosis artwork before and this one is very unusual. The photograph measures 13 1/4" square and is mounted on 15 1/2" square art board. In excellent condition. We are selling this as a collectible only, and obviously without any copyright, which would remain with Hipgnosis.CLICK HERE TO SEE OUR "ME" PAGE FOR MORE ABOUT OUR HIGH-END RARE RECORDS AND ONE-OF-A-KIND MUSIC COLLECTIBLES.
We have been buying and selling music collectibles for nearly 40 years via our website, Ebay, and mail-order.

Please check our feedback; you'll see that we are dedicated to providing superior customer service and follow through. We guarantee everything we offer to be authentic with no time limit.
We welcome International buyers and ship around the world every week.
US & Canada Shipping: $9 for 1-2 LP's by insured Priority Mail (Ebay’s recent rule change requires us to offer Media Mail shipping for records, at $4.00 for 1 LP. As this is a very slow method of shipping and uninsured, we cannot guarantee safe delivery by this method and strongly recommend paying extra for the much quicker and safer Priority Mail.) $15 for 1-2 posters, shipped priority mail in a new mailer/tube & US orders are automatically insured for up to $200 in value. Calif. buyers add 8.75% sales tax (calculated automatically by Paypal.) All other items shipped at cost.
International Shipping: $16 for 1 LP airmail without insurance. $4 for each additional LP; $21 for 1-2 posters. All other items shipped at cost. Because of problems with the Italian Post Office, we highly recommend either insured or registered mail for all Italian orders and cannot be responsible for any order shipped to Italy without one or the other of these.
