Pink Floyd, A Saucerful of Secrets Album Cover, 1968

A Saucerful of Secrets was Pink Floyd's sophomore album effort. This marked Storm Thorgerson and partner Aubrey Powell's first commission for the band. The superimposed mix of the cover was an attempt to represent the swirling, dreamlike visions of three "altered states of consciousness" - religion, drugs, and Floyd music.

Release Notes:
In 2008, Storm and SFAE celebrated Pink Floyd's 40th anniversary with an exhibition of signed photographs of images that he had created for the band over the years both as a founding member of the design collective Hipgnosis, and as an independent designer with StormStudios. These photographs were produced as signed, open editions and were only briefly available for sale as they were intended only for the anniversary celebration. Very few of any of these images were produced.
