This EXTREMELY hard to find 12-inch 78rpm platter was one of RCA Victor’s special ‘picture disc’ releases with images covering the entire playing surface of both sides. To construct these, a shellac core was sandwiched between two illustrated sheets, which were then coated with clear plastic upon which the recording was pressed.
