Stevie Posted March 22, 2012 Posted March 22, 2012 Very occasionaly I might play off an LP. Up to now I've just taken the album with me and hoped for the best, but would be interested if anyone has a simple way to keep them safe without carrying a bloody great box around. Was thinking maybe one of those student portfolio cases with a couple of thin ply stiffeners might do the job?
Citizen P Posted March 22, 2012 Posted March 22, 2012 (edited) Had a promotional lap top shoulder bag given at one of the conferences-carries half a dozen or so quite comfortably. If you can live with promoting an industrial cleaner that is Tony Edited March 22, 2012 by tonyp
Supercorsa Posted March 22, 2012 Posted March 22, 2012 LP Bag or LP Mailer. Best Russ I was going to say mailer.

Why not get a 12" shoulder record bag? available at many good vinyl record stores or 100s of websites.
nickp Posted March 22, 2012 Posted March 22, 2012 (edited) You will have people trying to see thru the case and check out your albums. As a youth I always made sure that I had a see thru bag to carry records around in, with the coolest sleeve on prominent display. Some of the 'coolest' sleeves would , nowadays, be somewhat embarassing. If The Tempests was one of the albums you could always get rid of it and get a Stardust 7 " Edited March 23, 2012 by nickp
boba Posted March 22, 2012 Posted March 22, 2012 I was going to say mailer. yeah, if it's literally only a couple of LPs, you could just use a mailer and protect them as you would if you were mailing them. If you use a bag that's not really designed well for LPs, you risk corner dings or other problems (which you may or may not care about).
Pete Eccles Posted March 22, 2012 Posted March 22, 2012 (edited) I use a Ben Sherman canvas shoulder bag designed for a lap top, but great when used as an album bag/mini bar Edited March 22, 2012 by Pete60
Mrtag Posted March 22, 2012 Posted March 22, 2012 If you have a 250 - 2 lane singles box you can usually get 3 to 4 - 12" or albums across the top!! :yes:
