The mischievous art of Jim Flora

The outer archives are busy

About this book

"James (Jim) Flora concocted dozens of diabolic and hallucinatory album cover illustrations, many for Columbia and RCA Victor jazz artists, in the 1940s and '50s." "This is the first comprehensive collection of album art by Jim Flora (1914-1998), featuring more than 225 images. This book contains most of his known covers, rarely seen illustrations from Columbia's Coda trade journal, and some of Flora's commercial work for magazines of the period. The Mischievous Art of Jim Flora also presents the first-ever reprinting of Flora's fabled Little Man Press illustrations (1939-1942)."--Jacket.
