The image of the boy, as featured on the album cover, was later identified as Anthony O'Shaughnessy, photographed during the evacuation of Catholic neighbourhoods in Belfast during the riots of August 1969. The example we featured in our original 2006 Rock Explosion exhibition generated considerable interest when it was picked by BBC Northern Ireland, leading to interviews with Anthony O'Shaughnessy (the boy in the image) and his meeting with Kevin Rowland. Very scarce poster.
