12 Feb 12 - Welcome all to my Flickr tribute gallery to an artist, designer and packaging inventor that I admire, Alex Steinweiss.

Among his many artistic achievements, Steinweiss is credited with the invention of the packaging for modern album covers.
He's also credited with the idea of placing original works of art on those covers that were based on the traits of the performer, not the record company's imagery.

Hope you enjoy his works like I do. Possibly you have some to share here as well.
