The Talking Machine Forum — For All Antique Phonographs & Recordings

According to his site, Kurt Nauck is out of stock on these 7" sleeves.

I'm looking for either unused or preferably unmarked used ones. Will consider marked ones if necessary.

Indeed, this is a tragedy...or at least a huge annoyance. We're all scrounging for these right now. Kurt says maybe next year he'll make more, maybe not.

These sleeves from Bags Unlimited are the nearest thing I've found. They are the same size as Nauck's and have the appropriate label cutout. Good for 7" 78s.

7" Vinyl Record Jackets - KRAFT. 7-¼"(w) x 7-3/16". WITH Center Hole. Made from Heavy-duty 18 pt Chipboard.
SKU: S7JHKRFT $67/100

Thank you, Charles. Sorry for the late reply.

FYI, I bought some of those earlier this year, and they were just a hair too small for my 7" 78s; I couldn't get any of them into the sleeves without tearing them. I had to return them, and Bags Unlimited did not make that easy. Just sayin'. YMMV.

Yes, Bags Unlimited focus is on vinyl. Kurt's sleeves are designed for early discs. And even with those Berliners are a bit of a tight fit, but they work.

Sometimes you just have to make your own.

This what we did before Bags Unlimited even did standard 78 sleeves.

Interesting. Many years ago, I used to cut circular holes in 10" Manila envelopes. Mostly all 10" records fit in them except Columbias, from what I remember.

Yes, Columbias were always larger than 10"...
