Prior to more famous Who concept albums like "Tommy" and "Quadrophenia," The Who Sell Out was presented as a 1960s British "pirate radio" broadcast filled with songs, fake commercials and mock public service announcements. The cover art — featuring Pete Townshend wielding a super-size stick of deodorant and Roger Daltrey in a bathtub full of Heinz baked beans. Released on the Track label, the first 1,000 U.K. pressings of the album (500 in mono, 500 in stereo) included a folded "psychedelic poster". The cover shows some signs of age but not massive discolouration. The vinyl is in great condition. I can't see the matrix numbers only A2 visible to naked eye. This has the poster but I can't be sure that this is an original as there isn't a hype sticker. If it is, it has been kept in pristine condition, which makes me think that it isn't, so have priced accordingly. I'm not a professional record dealer so not sure how to grade etc but hopefully pictures do it justice, happy to send more pictures direct if needed.
