This is a clear 45 that arrived as is. I love the seated buddha image as it makes me think the record is an endless loop of mantra chanting. Such a great idea-have no idea where you can still find vinyl. Thank you Cuan!

I'm really trying not to picture you or anyone else in vinyl:) Vinyl clothing and spandex are ideas that should have been scrapped. But records are great-particularly 45s and 32s-so much more special and tangible than CDs and mp3s. That would make some great wall art at Chez Marks!

This is beatiful.  Lucky you.    Vinyl?  I wear it all the time.  Doesn't everyone?  Funny enough when I was in England over Christmas, I went into a charity shop and found a box of old 45's records.  They sold for about 65 cents each and I picked out a few with funny titles.  These may show up someday in mail art.  (I also found a few 1963 Beatles records!  But these I'll be sending to my sister who has one of those big American Wurlitzer
juke boxes ... it's next to the full size stuffed bear!)
