Aw yeah, Seventh Son has a great cover too, it was posted here earlier. I don’t remember the gatefold scene, maybe the cassette version I had didn’t include it.
That makes sense. I’d bought a cheaper Central American-manufactured cassette of Powerslave which didn’t have any gatefolds. (I’m pretty sure it was a licensed copy: it had copyright and manufacturing info and I bought it at a store in Central America, but dunno how thorough their licensing was back then.)
By coincidence over the weekend in a box of old stuff I found my cassette of Live After Death! It was the first Maiden album I bought as a kid. The US version, so it had the fold-out of concert pictures.

I just realized it wasn’t seventh son with the Egyptian theme it was Powerslave. Still awesome art work.

Wow that was the first Maiden album I bought also, it was a cassette.
