The art of cassette tape covers

Cassette tapes

Those wonderful years where did we get our newly copied cassette tape where we had made a selection of our favorite music to listen to with those headphones that stood out by themselves when we sat in some of the back seats of a bus.

Those tapes that we recorded almost "by hand" Most of them had a visual aesthetic worthy of mention and that has remained for the 70s and 80s as something of the past and that from a Flickr account it has been wanted to rescue and that from these lines we bring you so that you can check the art in those tapes that we bought. An art in itself as you will see below with some of the most striking examples that can give you some idea for your work.

From this flickr account you can access all of them to see the entire collection of high resolution scans, although yes, the author does not allow the download of any of them.

Maximum

With a bit of a vintage flavor, these Retro covers that can be a great contribution for all kinds of accessories or vintage items with the use of certain colors such as red and striking fonts that take up almost all the space that was had in the front of the cassette tape. An opportunity to take our old Walkman out of the closet and resurrect one of those cassette tapes that we have lying around in a shoebox.
