The Era of LaserDiscs

After getting my first "big job" in the project management field, it wasn't too long before I had some extra spending money in my bank account. Along that time, which was the early 90s, I discovered movies on LaserDiscs. At the time, they were the best form of home movie entertainment technology. I spent the next decade building up a nice library of movies on LaserDiscs.

One thing that I soon discovered was these vinyl slip covers to help protect my discs. However, I could only find them via mail order, from a company far away in California.

I've since collected a few more LaserDiscs over the years since they stopped producing them, but I could never find these vinyl slip covers ever again. I guess I should have stocked up on more of them when I could. They're really nice, heavy vinyl, with a zip lock and the LaserDisc logo printed in white on the corner.

I've never heard of it but it obviously meant something to you! A dramatic dust jacket indeed!

Hey, Andy!

This photo was taken for a Laserdisc collector's forum I posted a comment on. I was asking if anyone knew if these dust jackets were still available somewhere. I have several Laserdiscs in my collection that needs one.
