    that does look a bit like the tamla logo, but no tamla discography lists any disc by svetlana gruebbersolvik. she really doesn’t look like she knows much holland-dozier-holland…

    I believe that this was a gag cover on the “Twisted Vintage” Tumblr blog.

    FWIW, closer inspection shows the catalogue number as tamla TS-304, which is “signed, sealed and delivered” by stevie wonder.

    It’s awesome how the recorder is both oversize and flesh-tone.

    If I owned this remarkable album cover, it would be displayed on my wall of fame!

    Oh Wow! Reading the title of this thread, I was hoping against all odds it would be about THIS album! I saw this on “Ellen” and I thought, “did I see what I think I saw in the upper left corner????!!!!” I thought, if it’s a gag, someone has amazing tastes in what record label logo to rip off!

    Now, I see- it is a gag- a very good one at that!
