Otto Foky (1927-2012) was an animation film director, puppet designer, advertising graphic artist, creator of Mirr-murr, the TV teddy bear and misi squirrel figures, as well as the smallest jump-eared and bumba monkey. Foky was a designer at the Pannónia studio between 1956 and 1962, an animation director from 1962, and then he founded the Budapest puppet film studio. He made hundreds of bedtime stories, children's films, and commercials. He said goodbye to the studio in 1987, after which he created several storybooks with his wife.

The new product under the brand name colorvox began to be manufactured in 1959 and was officially put on the market in 1960, based on a rather special cooperation between four well-known Budapest socialist companies (the publishing company of the Fine Arts Fund, the "Budapest" record factory, the qualiton studio and the offset printing house), in standard postcard size (20x15 cm). Thanks to its specially trained surface, sound grooves that can be played at a speed of 45 revolutions/minute were pressed into the picture side.

No official discography was published for the Colorvox and cityvox postcard discs made for the export market, even though they often contained recordings that were never released on normal vinyl records.
