Alex Steinweiss � part 5
Alex Steinweiss (1917 - 2011) played a seminal role in record cover design as the art director for Columbia Records as well as other record companies, London, Decca and A & R records. He revolutionized the way records were packaged and marketed. His genre-defining work in the visual expression of music transformed both the design and the music industries.

Note: I do not have dates for the remainder of the covers in this post or in part 6 (to follow), so they will inevitably be of mixed styles from different periods.
