In the early 70's a few records came up with fake newspapers as their cover. Here are some examples.
Jefferson Airplane - Volunteers. (RCA 1969)
This is one of the earliest ones from 1969. A mock conservative newspaper with drug references throughout.
Included as an insert with more of the fake conservative newspaper.
Then used the following day to wrap a sandwich.
John & Yoko - Sometime in New York City (Apple 1973)
Since the music on this album was topical, might as well make it appear as it's front page news
Jethro Tull - Thick as a Brick (Reprise 1972)
This parody cover from 1972 actually folds out to to a full size newspaper. Its around 16 pages.
