DIVER DAN and THE BERMUDA ONION- Featuring Kay Lande, Del Close and Others (Columbia): An incredibly hard to find record from the short lived show Diver Dan. With comic great Del Close, one of the founders of the Second City comedy troupe.

LP is in nice shape grades at VG+ with a few light scuffs that don't greatly affect play. Cover is beautiful with no visible sleevewear and NO seam splits. There is a faint pen mark on the back upper right.

Diver Dan debuted in 1960, the brainchild of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, cartoonist J. Anthony (John) Ferlaine, as a spinoff of his comic strip, Fish Tales. In New York City, Diver Dan shorts ran as part of Felix & Diver Dan, a 30-minute children's show airing from January 4, 1960, to August 31, 1962, which also included Felix the Cat.[3] In Chicago during the 1960s, Diver Dan was regularly shown on the WGN-TV show "Ray Rayner and His Friends" even though Rayner would frequently read on-air letters from children requesting that he get other cartoons.
