Hi

Looking for a site which lists all company sleeves with years used for the vinyl, thought I saw a post on here which had all this on  but have tried a search but cannot find this?

Anyone point me in the right direction.

Many thanks

Here is one website of which  I know:

https://www.45rpmrecords.com/ms/index_list.php

 

But, there is a much more complete one I have used in the past:

 

There was one in the UK called 45sleeves.com, that used to list all sleeves and years they were used, but that expired in March, I heard the owner died.

Yes.  That's the one I used to use.  Here's a comment on it:

"I really hope 45cat can do something to save all the hard work Erling put into his site, As well as being a useful source of information it was an invaluable historic resource for the world of 7" records, over time i have contributed to his site and as a collector of 7" sleeves from the 50s and 60s i still have the sleeves, Erling recorded the smallest differences on what might appear to be identical sleeves A real shame if all his work was lost."  I contributed to it as well.

We also had a thread with hundreds of scans (with hundreds from myself, representing many hours of work by me) on a now defunct forum, called SoulTalk.  But, alas those threads are lost.  I still have all the sleeves and the individual scans.  But, I'll never have the time again to post them (I have other priorities).

Thanks for info so far, I am trying to get the original covers for my records although I remove records when I buy them, I would like to be able to get all the records in the right original sleeves as I only remove to protect the sleeves, those I do not have I want to replace over time.

Once again thanks for help so far.

Put them on a CD, post it to me and I'll upload them for you.

That ex-site is a tremendous resource, and the good news is that you can still use it! Here ya go:

That looks exactly like the old 45sleeves.com  web site. 

Thanks for posting !!
