[78-L] 78 album covers

[Bertrand CHAUMELLE]

I have "Symposium of Swing" on the Gramophone (French label) in the 
imported British album (with seceral photos on the front and on the 
back).

But, believe it or not, a French artist, André Girard did the first 
illustrated album, "Un mois de vacances", in 1933 for Mireille and Jean 
Sablon (a musical comedy). What's more, in 1937, some single Charles 
Trenet records were sold in illustrated sleeves, too: "La polka du 
roi", and so on...
