Hm. I like the cover on the Blue Note set, but one of those tri-tones would've also been elegant.

I had the yellow/red one and another with a David Stone Martin drawing (trio w/Nat).

If I recall correctly the original Volume One of the Aladdins issued on the English Vogue lable had a very hip mosaic-type cover including a pic of Lester, glass in hand. Would any of our UK members be able to upload that?

Move over, Andy Warhol!

Is Hank's "Just Coolin" a tribute of sorts to Prez?

Somehow the original Aladdin covers don't look all that rare to me, maybe because French EMI did pretty nice facsimile reissues of the two LPs in the 80s (which I was very glad to snap up at the time).

Now which of the ones apart from the yellow/blue and green/pink one here is NOT a Warhol-ish fake but existed actually?

I still have the pink one with the photo of the (art director's?) chick. DB Blues!!!!!!!!

They all existed! 10" LP, 12" LP, & EP.
