One more in my ever growing collection of flexible postcard records. Pictured is the International Garden Exhibition. As written on the sleeve, the postcard was given as a gift from the Rohr family to a Kurt Becker (“today’s birthday child”) on February 24, 1964. Who then proceeded to write down some football results on the same sleeve.
Maybe he just didn`t care for CRAZY COMMUNIST ROCK´N´ROLL!!!…?
ORCHESTER GÜNTER GOLLASCH, Twist-Twist, 1964
About me:
My name is Andreas Michalke. I´m a cartoonist from Berlin, Germany and I like collecting records. Most of the records I find in thrift stores or at flea markets here in Berlin. I like a lot of music but I thought I`d focus on odd German records. Preferably with cartoon covers.
All my scans are high-resolution. If you double-click on them they will get much bigger.
Very cool…though, isn’t the date the 27th, not the 24th?
I´m sorry, you´re are absolutely right.
By the way, the results of the football match are:
First minute: 1:0 (penalty), 25th minute: 1:1(penalty) and 43rd minute: 1:2
Who was playing in that football match? If it actually was a football match. Maybe it was some other game. And maybe it wasn´t even Kurt who wrote on the sleeve. Oh, the magic of the flea-market…
Really interesting — laminated postcard records.
You got a good sound out of it.
I’ve been trying to transfer a similar cardboard record to mp3, but it doesn’t come out as well as this.
