[78-L] Sleeves for 78s

[Ron L'Herault]

Which makes me wonder if anyone knows a source for the green heavy duty
paper that old sleeves were made from.  I have a "Little Wonder" sized
album which should have 25 record pockets but is down to 4 or 5.  I'd like
to  make new pockets to bring this little gem back to life.

I'd either get them from Kurt Nauck (http://www.78rpm.com/) or Bags
Unlimited since I live here in the USA.

>Hi all,
> 
>Apologies if this has been discussed before but I have a question about
sleeves for 78s.
> 
>Some time ago I decided to buy some new card sleeves for my 78s from Covers
33 in England (where I am based).  I could not afford to buy enough for all
my records so now have a mixture of sleeves on my 78s. I started doing it as
many of my 78s had shabby old shop sleeves or company ones in bad shape.
> 
>I was going to get more new sleeves so my 78s all looked the same, then I
started to change my mind.
> 
>This was due to coming across about 40 immaculate records (all single sided
12") in strong card covers (shop adverts on each one).  I wouldn't normally
have bought Opera 78s at the time but I became interested in the Chaliapin
and Caruso items and kept them all.  The question is - keep them in the
sleeves they are in (which look like they were bought yesterday despite
being from c.1925) or put them in new covers?
> 
>What sleeves do people on this list use?  I know it's probably personal
choice but maybe also something to do with old sleeves affecting the records
(will records suffer from being in a particular type of cover over time?)
> 
>I also started putting labels on the new sleeves with data about the record
inside but wouldn't want to deface an old cover ... but perhaps that is
beside the point...
> 
>Any ideas or opinions appreciated...
