These were all kept in the most ideal of conditions, in a small 45 TOTE, which makes them virtually free from airborne particles, sun fading, minimal wear from handling or oxidation as well… The totes came with small catalog stickers, which are applied to some of the jackets as well, and these are WATER BASED, postage stamp style stickers, that can be removed with no issues with a little patience, a little water and a lot of CARE in doing so! Take your time and you can get these back to NM examples, or at least free from the stickers. The price codes and other stickers, which used a "gum" style adhesive, will actually be easier to remove, as they are petroleum based adhesives and can be removed, the adhesive can be dissolved and softened, with REGULAR OLD FASHIONED LIGHER FLUID! Naptha (probably misspelled) is the secret ingredient that is mostly what lighter fluid is, and the solute for these stickers! You can use this info and pass it on to whoever may need it! Just soak the sticker in the fluid, wait a while and slowly and carefully peel it off. Any residue left can be dissolved with the same fluid. At first you may see a darkened area from the fluid, but it will evaporate in a short while. BUT, you may encounter some discoloration from the stickers themselves, which there's not a lot you can do about… but working fast is the best thing to do, as once you dissolve the adhesive it will possibly soak into the sleeve and cause more discoloration. Try this technique on some other less valuable records to get a feel for the best technique before you try it on the ones you treasure. good luck and thanks for your business! Hope I helped some of you with this age-old problem! The dreaded STICKER dilemma! LOL
