vnzbd Posted October 7, 2011 Share Posted October 7, 2011 Helo all, I am putting together a game room and am looking for some album sleaves for wall art. I do not have a turntable and do not have any intrest in the albums themselves. I am looking for stuff I grew up listening to such as Van Halen, Eagles, SRV, AC/DC. Does anyone have a source for these? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
USNRET Posted October 7, 2011 Share Posted October 7, 2011 Ahh, the timing ain't right. I just tossed out about 50 covers on Tuesday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigStewMan Posted October 7, 2011 Share Posted October 7, 2011 you can find many on various websites and print them. i have a few of my favorites printed in color and framed. turned out nice. sometimes the search for a high resolution picture can be challenging; but, i've found many.

oldtimer Posted October 7, 2011 Share Posted October 7, 2011 Just for definitional purposes, the sleeve is the inside envelope that holds the lp. The jacket is the thicker part with the art on it. Outer sleeves are the clear envelopes that protect the jacket. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vnzbd Posted October 8, 2011 Author Share Posted October 8, 2011 BigStewMan, I did see a few web sites with pictures and like your idea of printing them. Who or what did you use to print a quality 12x12 ? Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MechMan Posted October 8, 2011 Share Posted October 8, 2011 The Goodwills and Sally Anns around here always have lots of empty albums. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigStewMan Posted October 8, 2011 Share Posted October 8, 2011 just used a canon printer that i have--$149 but prints pretty good images. i bought that one because 1. my brother had one and he was happy with it; 2. ink cartridges are like $10...a fraction of what i was paying for my epson. the one's i have turned out nice. especially Queen II, YES Close to the Edge (simple but one of my favorites for some reason), and Pink Floyd Dark Side of the Moon.

oldtimer Posted October 8, 2011 Share Posted October 8, 2011 Good call. Any printer with photo capability should work great. Use nice photo paper, ink...hey I might start doing that too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vnzbd Posted October 9, 2011 Author Share Posted October 9, 2011 Thanks for the info! I do have a photo printer, but 8.5x11 is its max size. Maybe a trip to Kinkos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
