Is the effect used in this cover photo some fancy processing or just fingerprints on the camera lens or the negative?

I guess the fingerprints are added as intentionally as the green lines that surround the shapes of the musicians and their instruments (note, the
fingerprints don't overlap them anywhere). So it's probably just another new promotional device that leaves irreparable scars on the minds of us
foolish not really young anymore consumers.
Just my 0.50$

Is that $0.50 in 70's dollars or 2022 dollars...
BTW: Great question Poly as many times as I have looked at this album cover I always thought it was the stage lighting but now I believe it was added
for some unknown Frank reason...

Never noticed it before either - a deliberate finger print I'd say

Did Zappa ever play with Robert Wyatt??
I'm just listening to Soft Machine Vol II
would have been awesome if they did...........
I think Zappa said "Anybody can open for the Mothers - except the Soft Machine."
