Description

In 1972 Michael Jackson released his 2nd solo album 'Ben'.
The album became the first number one hit of Michael's solo career.

The initial release of the album featured a picture of Michael with rats superimposed on the cover. This cover was soon recalled as parents thought the images to graphic and horrifying for their children.

The superimposed image of rats on the cover was soon replaced with a larger picture of Michael, making the 'Rat cover' a most sought after collectors item and a rare find indeed.
