Covers
– Philips Argentina
After Chile and Colombia, it’s now time for Argentina. I added two albums: “Ayer, Hoy Y Siempre” by Marlene Dietrich (P 07684 L) and “Basie” by La Orquesta De Count Basie (P-630.577-L).
Unlike Chile and Colombia, Philips Argentina used a different logo; the lay-out is the same but it reads ‘microsurco’ instead of ‘minigroove’. A surprising detail, as the Spanish word means ‘microgroove’, rather than ‘minigroove’.

– Philips A 00383 L
Images were added for Philips A 00383 L, Philips GA 00383 L and Epic LC 3343; three versions of the same album. A German Philips pressing, one from South Africa, and the US release on Epic. Click on the first image below to see large images for all of these releases (the US release is linked from the notes).
– Philips P 17145 H
Images were added for Philips P 17145 H, a regular 78rpm record from 1953, performed by Jan Corduwener and his Ballroom-Orchestra. Click on the image below to see large images and more details, for instance anbout the origins of both songs.
– Philips N 72.109 H and more
Images were added for three versions of the same record by Henri Salvador. The French pressing N 72.109 H was probably released first. It’s a regular 78rpm record, no Minigroove, same as the Dutch 78rpm record, but the 45rpm issue does feature the Minigroove logo. Click on the images below for larger images and more details.

– Promotional cover for 78rpm records
Added today are cover scans of a 1951 company sleeve, providing information about the new (Minigroove) 78rpm format for record dealers (more specific: Decca dealers). The sleeve I have, was used for Philips P 01003 S, but it was used for other early 78rpm titles as well. Click on the image below to go to the page of Philips P 01003 S, which shows all sides of this gatefold sleeve and provides more information.

Images were added for Philips P 17550 H, a regular 78rpm issue, possibly not released in the 45rpm format (with the Minigroove logo). Click on the image below to see large images.
