Gatefold vinyl is actually really common again because of many vintage live concerts being released. What could fit into the category of "things you didn't used to see," are double albums with only 3 sides of music. I had to draw the line there. Haven't seen any new vinyl on the scale of the early Yes albums though
1962 ad? The guy has a pierced lower lip… and tattoo on his hand…

The adjuster was a great idea. I wonder why it went away.
It is probably cheaper to make without it and they can charge more.

I used to get the small Pixy Stix that came in paper wrapper tubes. The paper would get wet with the candy powder and clog up the tube. Now, they come in plastic tubes. They even have the Giant Pixy Stix for sugar overload.

I remember the paper tubes. I didn't know they changed it to plastic. Ironically, the old paper tubes were probably more "green" than the newer plastic.I used to get the small Pixy Stix that came in paper wrapper tubes.
