I have owned it for a million years but a few years ago I heard that the sleeve is printed with ink that turns into watercolors when wet. I didn't want to destroy my copy but I really wanted to know if it was true and I wet my finger on a tiny area and it DID work! This is another pleasure you get from old albums like the spinning wheel on Led Zep 3. I have two copies of that since it's fun. Same goes for The Stones "Sticky Fingers" with the real zipper fly.
