Viking

Viking: 1957-78

Viking Records was a New Zealand owned independent label that released both local and international artists. It had licenses for several overseas labels.
 
I am unsure of the date this sleeve was introduced. I believe the same sleeve was used from 1957 to 1978. If you can shed so light on this please leave a comment or email me. It was printed in three colours green, red and black.
