Sadly I missed out in obtaining the above image. Its a 78 rpm release of a recording with Charlie Parker - the first time I believe he as appeared on record. The other "first" is that the cover was drawn by Wallace Berman, my Dad, when he was a teenager. Very rare, in fact the package here photographed didn't have the disks inside. Nevertheless it would have been great to have this, but at the same time I have no regrets. The memory of something (even if its true or false) is more important than the object. But i have to say I am rather proud that my Dad is both on the cover of Sgt. Pepper as well as being involved in Parker's first recording for a label. That's pretty great.
