You're gonna be getting requests for HQ scans of those olde record store bags for a new section of the forum which your pix have inspired DaN to start. :lol: :lol: :lol:

That would be awesome! Wish I had kept all the bags from the countless record shops I 've visited during the glory days of (physical) record hunting!

I made my comment in jest, but yeah it would actually be fascinating to see a large collection of old record shop bags if such an archive could be amassed. And knowing the completist nature of record collectors i wouldn't be that surprised to find that there were obsessives who kept or actively collected bags on their travels.

Nor me, they were just constant ephemera back in the days of abundant physical stores but now you're making me wish i'd kept my original Shades Records carrier bag from a London holiday in 1985.

Graham, I have actually found the bags I was talking about, I can't believe I actually preserved them. Vinil Manija bags came in various colors, but I don't think this was intentional. More like, the print color you want is unavalaible, d'ya fancy some purple? And kudos to DaN for heads up regarding attachments.

Very cool. Is that Max Cavalera chowing down on some vinyl in the lower design? Looks like him with the similar maniac glint in the eye.
