Alice In Wonderland By The Merry Players With Music And Sound Effects Vinyl Lp Appraisal

Alice in Wonderland by The Merry Players with Music & Sound Effects (Vinyl LP)

This item is identified as a vintage vinyl record album, specifically a storytelling and music recording titled "Alice in Wonderland" performed by "The Merry Players with Music & Sound Effects." The album cover features a vibrant, hand-drawn illustration depicting key characters from the Alice in Wonderland story within a whimsical, colorful landscape. Alice is prominently featured in her iconic blue dress and white pinafore, with blonde hair and a black headband. To her right, a white cat, likely the Cheshire Cat, is depicted wearing a top hat and a red waistcoat, appearing to emerge from or interact with a tree-like form wrapped around it. The background consists of a light blue sky with white clouds, and a foreground of various shades of green grass adorned with an array of colorful flowers (pink, red, purple, white) and grey stones. The illustration style appears to be late 1970s to early 1980s, possibly using watercolor and ink for its distinct appearance. The overall dimensions of the album cover are consistent with a standard 12-inch LP, approximately 12.375 x 12.375 inches. Visible wear is minimal, consistent with the 'very lightly used' description, with no obvious major creases, tears, or significant discoloration. The corners and edges appear relatively sharp with perhaps only minor shelf wear. The color saturation on the cover remains good, suggesting it has not been exposed to excessive light or moisture. A small circular logo is visible in the bottom left, though details are not clearly discernible in the provided image. The text at the top also lists other story titles: "Rumpelstiltskin, Rip Van Winkle, The Gingerbread Man," suggesting this might be part of a series or a compilation that also features other classic tales.
