Previously I have posted about a JVC record that featured Alice songs on one side and Cinderella songs on the other (see Japanese Victor Record - Title Song). But, did you know there was an entire storyteller album as well? Well, neither did I until a couple of years ago. Let's take a look!
This (along with all other "original release" items) was produced in 1953, which was the year Alice came out in Japan. As with the previously posted record, this is sung and told by Izumi Yukimura, who was a very popular singer in Japan. Issued as a two-record set in 78 rpm in an illustrated sleeve,
The set also comes with a 16-page booklet filled with text, lyrics and black & white illustrations, which I imagine is pretty rare to find intact with the set.
