I have a copy that matches this listing, except there is no “Sister LP out June 1st” flyer, and a pair of SST mail order booklets “We’re Here to Blast Your Concept” and “Compact Disc-O-Rama”, with no mention of “Sister”. Anyone else? Earlier 1st press, or later?

Does anyone have a jacket for this album? Please message me. Will take care of you in cash or trade. Thank you! -
pic of woman laying on the floor is obviously Richard Kern photo( like the evol cover of Lung Leg & his video for Death Valley 69).
