25 Polka Greats Compilation Vinyl Record (Back Cover)

This is a vintage 12-inch vinyl record sleeve for the compilation album titled '25 Polka Greats - 25 of the Greatest Polka Tunes Ever,' released by K-tel International in 1971. The back cover features a three-panel graphic layout printed on heavy cardstock. The top section lists the track information for Side One and Side Two, including various artists and polka classics. The center section contains a prominent advertisement for the 'Record Selector,' an automated storage device priced at $3.99. The bottom section advertises '20 Power Hits - Volume 1' and provides a mail-order address for the Imperial Gift Center in Minneapolis, Minnesota. The printing utilizes a limited color palette of blue, red, yellow, and black. Notable markings include the K-tel logo, catalog number TU 222, and a 1971 copyright date. Condition-wise, the jacket shows moderate wear including edge fraying, some light staining or foxing on the white background, and minor corner dings. This item is characteristic of budget-line compilation marketing common in the early 1970s, emphasizing high-count track lists and cross-promotional retail items.
