Victory At Sea : The Original Score
12" Album Cover


Description: This vintage album cover features four sailors scoring a "victory at sea" with nude women onboard their yacht. On the back cover are four more nude women and an imaginary tracklist. The cover is in very good+ condition, minor surface wear, a bit of wear at lower right & top left corners, no seam splits. This Kanrom gimmick album cover was released without a vinyl record inside, instead the original round gift card is included. It reads “I bought this Album for you as a gift… sorry, I couldn’t afford the record!” along with "From" in a white heart shape. Please see pictures. The pictures in this listing are of the actual album cover you will receive.

In the early 1960s the recorded album was a new form of media that found its way into millions of living-rooms all over the world. The number of titles grew enormously and people used to buy records for special occasions, like Music For Dining, Music For Secret Agents, Music For Relaxing and even Music To Listen To Records By. These titles became quite popular and around 1962 a small company called Kanrom got the idea of starting a kind of gimmick series to give away as a birthday present, or just as a joke. The sleeves were based on the previously mentioned records for special occasions, but inside there was no vinyl record! Instead of music there was only a round gift card with the sentence: “I bought this Album for you as a gift… sorry, I couldn’t afford the record!” Twelve volumes appeared in an unnumbered series, most of them with photography by the relatively unknown Ra Cantru. The pictures were a little obscure and satiric, but most sleeves had nude women on the cover, like Music For Hangovers, Great Piano Pieces and Communist Party Songs with a lookalike of Nikita Khrushchev, very controversial for the cold war period.
