The Beatles - Rubber Soul - 1965
The cover art is by the English photographer and graphic
designer Robert Freeman (1936 - 2019).
Freeman had taken some pictures at Lennon's house and
showed them by projecting them onto an album-sized piece
of cardboard to simulate how they would appear on the cover.
The unusual Rubber Soul album cover came to be when the
slide card fell slightly backwards, elongating the projected
image of the photograph and stretching it.
Excited by the effect, they shouted, "Ah! Can we have that?
Can you do it like that?" Freeman said he could.
