Okay, the book is called "In the Groove: Vintage Record Graphics, 1940-1960" by Eric Kohler. Just the sort of thing I'd be likely to buy on a whim at Green Apple Books. Reminds you of what was lost, graphically, with the change-over to CD's.

I've had the Kohler book on display in my living room for a couple of years. It's a nice supplement to the strictly jazz cover art books. This one offers a significant number of images from 78 rpm albums, EP's, and 10" LP's that are otherwise becoming forgotten. Old stuff from Columbia, Decca, Capitol, RCA, etc. The other artists, besides Jim Flora, are Alex Steinweiss, Robert Jones, Rudolph Deharak, Erik Nitsche, David Stone Martin, Burt Goldblatt, Reid Miles, and a few others.
