Hey Jan, I too loved the old Maiden album art. I vividly remember buying their debut album from a little boutique record shop on campus at Illinois State University in Normal, Illinois back in the day. The shop was actually called Mother Murphy's and essentially they were a bong and pipe shop, but advertised as a record shop. Yeah, they had records, but one you walked up the curved staircase, you were met with incense smells and sometimes a smell of pot. They had black lights, and all that. I remember they had a poster with this album cover in the hallway and I was instantly smitten! I bought the album without having a clue who Iron Maiden were and I literally played that damn thing to death.

Killers was my first Maiden album and tbh I bought it because I loved the album cover, it became my favourite Maiden album together with Powerslave (saw them at that tour live).
