David Stone Martin

David Stone Martin is not well-known by the general public, but his record covers are highly sought-after by jazz aficianados.  He's known to have designed more than 250 LP covers, and a "DSM" cover on the more obscure labels such as Norgran and Clef automatically commands that LP a higher value.
