I know a magic house
where music comes
from black circles.
More album covers of the Biblical variety.
Janie Bryant, the costume designer for Mad Men, on menswear and the “plaid sports coat extravaganza” seen here.
Teen-age Favorites on Flickr.
Earlier this morning we posted the cover for 12 Hit Parade Tunes. Lo and behold, here is the same dancing couple on another collection of malt-shop hits! Different pose, same jukebox… and the right shoulder of male half of the teen couple sitting in the foreground of the previous cover.
(Also note that the prior album was marked $1.49 on the cover, where this one is sticker priced at only 59 cents. Bargain!)
To see my photograph that incorporates this vintage album cover, check out: Frank and Betty get pinned without a care in the world.

A young Carol Lynley (before her Poseidon Adventure) can also be seen here on the cover of Indian Love Call.
