Jim Flora Art has launched a new limited edition fine art print: INSIDE SAUTER-FINEGAN, a 1954 RCA Victor LP that features one of Flora's best-known cover illustrations. Eddie Sauter and Bill Finegan were famous for their orchestral mayhem. While Flora's mischievous cover figures didn't physically resemble Eddie or Bill, his caricatures reflected their inventive approach to redefining big band jazz in the 1950s.

I love the art of Jim Flora!
Here in Sweden we have Stig Lindberg,
1916-1982, a great designer, http://www.google.com/search?q=stig+lindberg&hl=en&client=safari&rls=en&prmd=ivnso&tbm=isch&tbo=u&source=univ&sa=X&ei=OLdQTozVLofNhAfNipX9Bg&ved=0CF8QsAQ&biw=1280&bih=627
But Jim Flora - I have just discovered him. I like your blog too.
I found a Sauter-Finegan record this weekend, but it wasn't this one. It's never this one. :(
