Included in the first release of the LP was a promotional poster which featured the funerary angel gracing the album's innersleeve. The 24" x 36" poster was folded into a 12" x 12" square and slipped into the sleeve along with the vinyl disc. The original posters are now considered rare and valuable to collectors. The photograph, taken by Nadezhda Soboleva, was in consideration to be the album's gatefold cover. The image above includes a link to a full-sized, high resolution pdf version of the original poster, without the folds.
