I’ve been obsessing over card sleeve CDs lately (specifically from France but also Germany and Australia), trying to fill in some holes in my collection. I haven’t been a huge fan of card sleeves in the past because it was never my favorite type of packaging, but last month I realized I needed to get on it and start hunting down all the ones I was missing, and I’ve still got several to find from around the world. I’ve got a few more coming in for February. The tricky part is trying to find them in good condition since the card sleeve corners get bent and the edges worn easily. Anyway, overall January was a good month for collecting. Good way to start the year!
