I see jeans in there, maybe something to do with a Polaroid photo?

Googled it to read the cover writing for more clues (which is not part of the LP design) and found this.

https://aquariumdrunkard.com/2017/03/14/john-scoggins-pressed-for-time/

"The existence of the ‘tax scam’ LP is one of the stranger tales of the 1970s record business. In short, crooked label heads would press up demos of unsigned artists, outtakes from known artists, and other various ephemera in limited quantities that were thrown out into the market with zero promotion — all based on the hopes of commercial failure and the ability for the ‘label’ to write off the failure as a loss.

John Scoggins’ Pressed For Time is one such record..."
