ROLLING STONES
STICKY FINGERS
First U.K. Release
Rolling Stones Records 1971 COC-59100 (COC 59100-A4 / COC 59100-B4)
The UK release had a larger name and title on the cover and labels, loads from
the top instead of the right and included a color insert in place of the color sleeve.
Signed by Craig Braun, designer of this iconic album cover.
Art director/designer Craig Braun, of Craig Braun, Inc. was responsible for the design of the 1971 Rolling Stones
Sticky Fingers album cover featuring Andy Warhol's concept of a working zipper inset into the front graphic.
It included the tongue and lips logo which Craig translated into an exclusive line of "LICKS" jewelry and promo items.
The Sticky Fingers album not only won a Grammy nomination, but in 2004 VH-1 awarded it the title
"Greatest Album Cover Of All Time."
Braun later formed the partnership of Wilkes & Braun in the 1970s with the late Tom Wilkes
and produced the now famous "Red" and "Blue" covers for the Beatles released in 1973, the outrageous
school desk package for Alice Cooper's "School's Out" released in 1972 with paper panties around the record,
and the 1973 Grammy Award winning Tommy: The Rock Opera boxed set for the Who.
This signed LP is a design sample from Craig's personal collection
and is signed in red on the back of the jacket and on the insert.
The board jacket is in excellent condition with a few indents that are inherent to all the SF zippered sleeves
from stacking but is otherwise very clean and tight, no bending at the buckle area, no bent corners.
The zipper is intact but corroded from age. The insert is NM, clean and bright, no tears or bends.
The vinyl is excellent with some light scuff marks, labels are very clean.
