a bird in the hand

Detail, Inside Sauter-Finegan RCA Victor LP cover, 1954. I bought this record at a yard sale in 1974 just for the sleeve illustration, which graced my living room wall. Never got around to dropping the needle on the vinyl. But you can listen to (and watch) Bill (Finegan) and Eddie (Sauter) on YouTube.

I suspect 1974 was about the last time anyone was lucky enough to find one of these at a yard sale. Well, no, I guess I'm being too pessimistic. I've found a few Flora covers around here and there in the past year, so they still exist in the wild. But most of them are now living in captivity. Shame...
