Does anyone have recommendations for box set vinyl covers? I'm talking about for really thick box sets. The biggest one I have is SOTT which is about 3.5 inches. The ones I found usually go to 1.5 to 2 inches. Thanks in advance!

The widest I've seen are 30mm. Are you specifically looking for dust covers or would something like self adhesive wallpaper sheets do?

For example. You could cut that to size as required, but you'd need to stick it directly on to the box set covers, and you wouldn't be able to remove it.

Alternatively, you could find somebody who works with vinyl (e.g. somebody who does signage) to see if they could make some for you.

Just looking for something to slip the box set into that I can remove whenever.

Thank you!

In that case your best option might be to do a DIY job - putting 2 of the 30mm covers together might do it for most of your larger box sets, and strips of the aforementioned self adhesive sheets would work well to put the bits together.

Although, I just measured the SOTT box set and it's 90mm, so a bit more construction required for that one.

I'm surprised they don't come any wider than 30mm, there's got to be plenty of box sets wider than that.

They need to make some specifically for box sets. Mine are sitting in CVS bags on a shelf.

Why would you want to shrink wrap a vinyl box set? Then you can't play 'em,

Already listened to all the vinyls. And have all songs digitally. Since there is no existing vinyl sleeve for this boxset size, much rather shrink wrap it. And it's pretty easy to shrink wrap again so Im fine with that while I listen to the digital.

What's the point od buying vinyl if you aren't going to play them?

Ooooh those look workable. Thanks!

And I play all vinyls. It's just the box sets are the ones I play on occasion (because I already have the digital HQ downloads) and since I spent a lot on them, I want to preserve them for as long as possible for when I pass it down to a member of my family when I get old.
