Thanks for the info.  Sorry, I should have been a bit more specific with my query.  I am seeking his art on early 78 rpm non-jazz
albums.  Pretty obscure stuff.  I just acquired a 3 record album on DISC label with Ruth Rubin performing Jewish and Palastinian
Folk Songs from Eastern Europe.  Also, he did an album for Langston Hughes reciting his poetry (this cover was used later on a
jazz LP, Pete Seeger, I think).

David Stone Martin was a noted illustrator and created covers for many jazz LPs in the 50s and 60s, but his work in the 40s (and
30s??) for 78 rpm album covers seems to be a bit more obscure.  There are literally hundreds of web pages chronicling his work on
LP covers, but I haven't been able to find much about his earlier work.  Any ideas where I might find this info?
 
Thanks!  CDB
