Two by Jack Davis. Courtesy of Uncle Gil. Some more his work here. To any kid who grew up in the Sixties with MAD Magazine (and his many paperback, movie poster, advertising and record cover illustrations), Jack Davis’ charactures and illustrations were just a part of life.

From Gilles Vignal.

A nice early rock n’ roll single from Uncle Gil in France.

I’ve never seen this record with Link Wray.   Thanks for another nice one Uncle Gil.

Two Prestige LP covers by Don Martin (best known for his work for Mad Magazine).
