    quite expensive, this is the problem... I paid € 100 for 3...
    I think I saw them for $100 (for 3 frames).
    This is a bit expensive but it's worth. It's very good quality.

    I have them all of them in frames on the wall from Ten to ITTW, except for Benaroya though that one i don't have it framed at all.
    It's only the sleeves though, all the records are out on other sleeves since I listen to them.

    edit.....nevermind, reread and answered my own question.....

    My friend was going to see Eddie last night. Since he was in Vegas, I gave him 5 Grand to gamble with. I told him I wanted it all to go on Black. Bastard! PhillyCrownOfThorns-11-2-12

    I guess I should have been more specific. The album covers is what I ment. I figured the records are spinning. That one display looks cool. That turntable is nice to.

    Those ARE incredibly cool. But for those of us on more of a budget, I go with these:

    I hate to support the evil WM, but in this case, I made an exception. I mean, even with shipping, they come to barely $9 per frame. They are probably out of stock because I bought them out, hehehe. Hopefully they will have more soon. And yes, these are more permanent frames. I typically use them for records that I also have on CD, and just play the CD or MP3s.

    ..just another post urging vinyl owners that keep their vinyls sealed to remember why they bought them, and to spin them for personal enjoyment rather than to hold them for appreciation in value..

    if you want to invest in something.. put your dollars in the bank. don't hoard PJ records. haha :p

    no. really.. its acceptable to do what you feel. But first listen to a PJ album on vinyl.. feel the difference then decide! i guarantee you'll be breakin' the seals. :D

    I think this is the post that will make me open my vinyls. I bought them for collectible purposes at first along with CD's to listen to. I have every PJ vinyl except for benny hall. All are sealed but many times I have been tempted. What ends up stopping me every time is that once they are opened, they will never be sealed again. But.....it's time. I'll make it worth it though. I'll start with Ten and make it a one by one thing ending with Into the wild. I don't know why I didn't do it before. i have no desire to sell. Thanks for opening my eyes, they were made to be spun. SPIN THE BLACK CIRCLE!

    wow, thanks for posting.. never thought i could be an influence like that! hah. I was sorta drunk while posting that, but dont let that ruin the inspiration! :D

    i think the feeling really sets in when you get to vitalogy.. all the gatefold ones are really special. read the huge artwork in them all while sitting close to your record player! :D

    does anyone have any suggestions for a 4 panel record frame? let me clarify this...

    i have the No Code vinyl... i've always wanted to unfold it and frame it so the triangle eye thing is showing. i am guessing i would have to get something specially done from a frame shop though.

    IMO, the best is to go the a framer with it and make a frme specially done forit.
    The no code cover certainly looks great on a wall. The only "problem is that, when opened, there's a "gap" between 2 of the 4 quarters...

  • i have a lots of 7 in vinyls...and i like the art just as much as the music, so listening to them and displaying the art appeals to me...

    i use itoya profolios for my posters and prints. im wondering if anyone has found something like these for 45s or 12in vinyls. kinda like a big caselogic cd holder but for records...i think it would be cool. for those who need the crates cause they have a billion records maybe not so much for smaller parts of collections they would be cool...i guess im lookinng for a 7in x 7in itoya profolio, cant find one though...obviously they fit n my 8inx10in one...


    also, has anyone found a sturdier case to hold vinyls in than just a mylar sleeve. i recently bought a really expensive 45 (from a different band) and want something other than a thin plastic sleeve to keep it in, perhaps a hard acrylic sleeve...any thoughts?

    the punk band NOFX let fans submit art work for 12 of their 7in singles...they all turned out pretty cool.
    I shit and I stink, I'm real, join the club...

    lastest vinyl i've purchases was yesterday. led zeppelin's - the songs remains the same 4lp box set. i might have to break out my old fisher price vintage record player to play this gem.

    I used wire wall hangers that were supposed to be for plates. Like this:

    http://www.govart.com/hardware_spechang_A.html

    The larger sized ones can easily hold a 12" record and are only $1.95 each. Plus you don't have a bulky frame around them and they almost look like they are floating on the walls.
