I’m laying my cards on the table…the turntable. You might have encountered the occasional novelty recording on laminated card - perhaps given away as a promotional tool, inserted in a magazine or on the back of a cereal box. However did you know that in 1960s & 70s Poland, the Sound Postcard was a popular budget format for new music releases.

A bit more information added since completing the video.
I have been advised that Postcard records could be sold in Polish newsagents - whereas normal records could only be sold in bookshops.
