I miss LP covers
I just realised this the other day. The 30 x 30 cm format just had a lot more graphical detail than a CD or the wee – albeit nice – picture on my iPod.
And yes, I do like carrying 2770 songs better on the iPod than on 250 LPs.I’d have liked to post some images – but the ones I had in mind needed both front and back cover, ideally folded out, to show well.
C.V. Jørgensen’s “Solgt til Stanglakrids” was the one that trigged my mind to this. Here’s the front:The hand on the back is something else, though. But alas I can’t find an image or, for that matter, figure out how I get 30x30 cm in my scanner.
But the format was nice, wasn’t it?
