Vogue Records was a short-lived United States-based record label of the 1940s, noted for the artwork embedded in the records themselves.
Founded in 1946 as part of Sav-Way Industries of Detroit, Michigan, the discs were initially a hit, because of the novelty of the colorful artwork, and the improved sound compared to the shellac records dominant at the time.
The discs were manufactured by first sandwiching printed illustrations around a core of aluminum, then coating both sides with clear vinyl upon which the grooves were stamped.
The company went out of business the following year, having released between 67 and 74 double-sided 78 rpm gramophone records.
Some of the Vogue issues were re-releases of recordings originally issued by other companies.
The colorful artwork on the records have made Vogue Records a collector's item.
