Description

After he's demoted as a result of having his cover blown, Atlanta undercover cop Burt Reynolds musters up his new vice squad members to bring down underworld kingpin Vittorio Gassman, who's responsible for a crime wave hitting the city. 


 


Includes both front and back of album and is the 1st proof.




In a world of digital downloads, the art of the album cover has been lost. But from the 1950s to the 1980s, album cover art was both a marketing tool and an expression of artistic intent.


 


The artist's proofs were typically destroyed once the album went to print. However, a few were salvaged and now considered to be collectors items. They are truly one-of-a-kind.
