Black Sabbath - Sabbath Bloody Sabbath Vinyl LP Record

This is a vintage 12-inch vinyl LP record jacket for the 1973 album 'Sabbath Bloody Sabbath' by the heavy metal band Black Sabbath. The cover features the iconic and controversial Drew Struzan artwork, characterized by its vivid, surrealist depiction of a person being attacked by demonic figures in a bed, set against a black background with a stylized red title. The physical construction is a standard cardboard gatefold sleeve (though only the front is visible). The color palette is dominated by deep blacks, fiery reds, and golden tones within the framed artwork. Notable features include the vertically oriented band name and album title in a distinctive 'Old English' style gothic font. Condition-wise, the jacket shows moderate signs of age and wear: there is visible ring wear on the front black surface, softening and scuffing at the corners, and some minor fraying along the edges. The lamination or gloss finish appears to have some dulling. The number '666' is subtly incorporated into the central artwork. Based on the typography and graphic layout, this appears to be an original or early pressing from the mid-1970s. The technical quality of the printing shows high-fidelity color saturation for the era, and the cover serves as a seminal piece of heavy metal visual culture.
