Notes
This version lacks the boat (wooden spaceship) on front cover.
Probably this would be made for test proof or confirmation about illustration.

< Yes / Fragile "NO BOAT" first edition cover >
Roger Dean is a painter of England, and is famous for depicting the cover art of records around the world.
Some works of Roger Dean caught the attention of Atlantic Records, received an order for a illustration of new work of progressive rock band "YES" in 1971.
This is a fantastic illustration of the 4th album "Fragile".
This illustration can also be interpreted as a warning to the future of the earth exposed to the dangers of nuclear weapons and environmental destruction.
It is said that copy of the first cover design of this album exist no more than few pieces in worldwide.
And it is depicted in much more dark colors than the design of mass-produced version.
This must be the original image that came to mind of Roger Dean when drawing the "Fragile star".
The impression that I saw the real thing, more artistic aura is emitted than commercial illustration.
On the mass production, color is changed bright, a boat has been added.
The Fragile "NO BOAT" is a ultimate item.
It is the rarest one of highly artistic piece among a huge number of progressive rock collector's items.
