The original vinyl sleeve actually looks like those two posters but backwards.  The back of the jacket is split light being recombined by a prism and shot at an upwards angle into the prism on the front cover, where it is split again.  Demonstrated here: http://mobile.collectorsfrenzy.com/gallery/230925609565.jpg [[Special:Contributions/68.170.77.75|68.170.77.75]] 20:25, 21 April 2013 (UTC)

I just noticed that he has the same poster, he (cueball) just turned it upside-down and drew a lens on it. 66.217.162.41 02:53, 6 January 2013 (UTC)

Note also that cueball's side of the room is an inverse of the left side of the room in other ways. The left bed has linens, the right does not, the left side of the room is messy, the right is not, the person on the left is sitting at a desktop, cueball is standing at a laptop and so on.

Also worth mentioning that this album cover is a very popular - to the point of cliche - poster to have in a student dorm. 31.221.45.4 14:26, 15 March 2013 (UTC)Chris C
