That's how I remember LP records in early 60's, in fact I still have some and there's no evidence of tape having been used, nor do I remember any being used. I don't think there yet existed a type of tape that would pull off cleanly without leaving a residue or marring the surface. Cardboard sleeves and paper liners only, and I don't think there was shrink wrap per se then, nor was cellophane used.

Jak,

You write, "By the way, WHAT THE HELL DOES THIS HAVE TO DO WITH SLICK BOINKING MONICA? Just thought I'd throw that in <g>."

Well, you see, this is how it started: First, we started talking about political humor, and then we sort of got off on record albums of political humor, and then we got off on etc., etc., etc. You know how it goes. Can you now see the connection and relevance? <vvbg>

BTW, your recollections agree with Grandmother's. Thanks. But we still don't know what they used to seal the freakin' cardboard LP jackets with to keep the freakin' record from falling out!

Holly

The 45s just came in a paper envelope. Sorry, I don't recall any sticky tape on them.

Well of course. But we were talking about albums. How were the albums packaged?
