Description

Hello to all you Girl Group, Sixties Soul & Motown connoisseur's out there

What you are looking at here is a beautiful hand made picture sleeve (Only) made for the Girl Group 1962 Marvelettes UK released single "Twistin' Postman" H-386. Which as all you collectors well know was the first of only four Motown singles to appear on the Fontana Label.This stunning piece of art has been made faithfully and true to the Garrod & Lofthouse EP original picture sleeves of the classic Sixties period. This sleeve (protector) has been made in high quality card and has that famous laminated front cover just like the Sixties originals and even the "Flipback" flaps on the rear. As you would all well know in their heyday none of the regular UK released Fontana / Tamla Motown 45s from the Sixties right up to the mid Seventies were ever released with a picture sleeve, only the EP's would get that privilege.

Please note that this is not a company item in anyway but an individual handcrafted item made lovingly by a collector for collectors. All sizes are true to the Garrod & Lofthouse Sixties spec so it can be used to house the 45 single no problem.......please note that there is no record included.

This Picture Sleeve (protector) is made from only using the best of materials - the fronts are printed on premium glossy photo card of 260gsm, which keeps the colours deep and rich, and is then laminated just like the sixties originals. The rears are once again top quality card which are slightly thicker then the original card used in the sixties.

As the Fontana label did not ever put out any kind of picture jacket for it's short term involvement with American black recordings we have arranged the text and some even with special images that the Sixties copies could have had (hope you collectors approve). With the flipback all around the label logo with the Fontana address it's all there, along with the songwriter’s names. Whether you have a company sleeve, you're an avid collector or a Northern Soul DJ out on the road this is a beautiful piece of art that would have people talking noticing and looking. 

Thanks for Looking
