record sleeve
Vinyl's paper home
A record sleeve is the cardboard cover that houses a vinyl LP, typically featuring album artwork, track listings, and credits.
The sleeve protects the record and serves as a canvas for visual design—iconic sleeves become art objects in their own right.
The original pressing came in a gatefold sleeve with lyrics printed inside.
