7 Inch Singles

A few examples on singles released without picture sleeves. In the USA and in UK this was the common way of releasing singles back in the (early) 70's, while most other countries had picture sleeves. Here's a sample of what it could look like - both commercial singles as well as promo releases. This page also includes examples on re-released 'budget' singles, for example Motown Gold and Yesteryear.
