Photographer Weddle also just put together a book about the project, and it includes nearly 140 outtakes, from a test shot of a doll in the pool to promo images of the band. The lawsuit reads, according to Variety, “Defendants intentionally commercially marketed Spencer’s child pornography and leveraged the shocking nature of his image to promote themselves and their music at his expense.” None of the defendants have responded to the Washington Post’s request for comment. Per Variety, he’s asking for “at least” $150,000 from each of the defendants, including a long laundry list of surviving band members, surviving record companies, defunct record companies, the photographer Kirk Weddle, and the executor of band frontman Kurt Cobain’s estate, Courtney Love-pretty much everyone involved in the shoot, plus the first drummer in the band, Chad Channing, as well as Dave Grohl, the drummer who replaced him and who was actually in the band by the time of the shoot.

Spencer Elden, the album cover star, pictured naked at four months old in a pool reaching for a dollar bill, filed a lawsuit on Tuesday alleging that the photo was child pornography. It’s almost the 30th anniversary of Nirvana’s Nevermind album, and for its birthday, virtually everyone who was involved in it is getting a lawsuit.
