Gerry Rafferty - Can I Have My Money Back? Vinyl Record Album

This is the front cover of the debut solo studio album by Scottish singer-songwriter Gerry Rafferty, titled 'Can I Have My Money Back?', originally released in 1971. The artwork features a distinctive illustrative style by artist John Patrick Byrne (signed as 'Patrick' on the left side), who was a long-time collaborator of Rafferty. The cover art depicts a stylized portrait of a figure in a beret and sailor collar, surrounded by ornate scrolls containing the album title, floral roses, a bird, and a butterfly. The aesthetic is heavily influenced by Art Nouveau, characterized by flowing organic lines and intricate border scrollwork. The color palette consists of muted earth tones, sepia, and rose pink on an off-white background. The physical condition shows visible signs of age including yellowing/toning of the paper, significant edge wear, some creasing at the corners, and minor staining or foxing consistent with a vintage record from the early 1970s. This specific piece appears to be a standard 12-inch 33 1/3 RPM vinyl LP jacket. The combination of the seminal folk-rock music and the celebrated artwork by Byrne makes this a notable collector's item for both music and art enthusiasts.
