Story & Background
Ah, *Sticky Fingers*, an era-defining masterpiece, and this first pressing from 1971 on Rolling Stones Records is an essential cult item for every collector. Its iconic cover, designed by Andy Warhol, was not only a visual work of art but also a genuine logistical challenge. Indeed, the first editions, like this one, boasted a perfectly functional metal zip fastener on the simulated denim. However, this ingenious artistic gimmick presented a significant drawback: the zip, protruding, often ended up scratching and damaging the surfaces of other vinyl records stored next to it in the stack or on shop shelves. To remedy this problem, subsequent reissues and international editions began to feature variants, from the semi-open zip to a fixed one without a mechanism, or even the famous cover with the molasses fingers for the Spanish market, making the first pressings with a functional zip true relics of record design history.
