In March 1953 Jones became Art Director at RCA Victor Records, where he soon began jobbing out album cover assignments to his friend Flora. This resulted in a Golden Age of Flora LP covers, including such celebrated designs as "Mambo For Cats", "Inside Sauter-Finegan", Lord Buckley's "Hipsters, Flipsters, and Finger-Poppin' Daddies, Knock Me Your Lobes", and "Shorty Rogers Courts the Count". Around this time, Flora also did spot jobs for Columbia as a freelancer, illustrating album covers and reviving "Coda" during 1952 and 1953.
