What size are 45 record sleeves?
7-1/2 x 7-1/4″.
Are 45s without sleeves worth anything?
Short answer: a lot less. Picture sleeves are what give a lot of 45s their value. Typically, singles don’t command big money anyway. On the other hand, if it’s a very rare and sought after pressing, you can still get something for it.
What are the dimensions of a 45 record?
7-inch
The most common form of the vinyl single is the “45” or “7-inch”. The names are derived from its play speed, 45 rpm (revolutions per minute), and the standard diameter, 7 inches.
Do Old 45s have any value?

Rock and roll and R&B 45s with the cardboard sleeves are worth at least $20, with many being worth more than $200.
How do you store 45s without sleeves?
The best place to store records would be a closet or interior room that doesn’t have any windows to make sure that they aren’t exposed to any sunlight at all.
Is it OK to store vinyl records flat?
Records shouldn’t be stored horizontally, or flat. Storing vinyl records flat can place too much pressure on the records lower in the stack causing damage over time. Never leave records leaning at angles when in a box or on a shelf, this will cause the vinyl to warp.
How do you keep your records straight?
Store your vinyl collection in an upright position. This is why records are often kept in crates that position them upright. Crate dividers make sure your records stay evenly upright with little or no slanting.
Should I keep the plastic on my vinyl?
You will need an outer covering to accompany the inner. This will protect your vinyl’s card sleeve but will also prevent dust finding the record (and abrading it over time). Be careful here. When compressed, these thick plastic covers can eventually stick to the record sleeve and pull the artwork right off.
