The
Tunes Company, founded in 1996, has saved hundreds of
thousands
(and still counting) of albums from being thrown away. We couldn't
stand the thought of all those memories and great labels just being
tossed.
After
11 months of trial and a lot of error, we devised a method to
cleanly cut the label from the center of the album. Voila! We found
that after the label was freed from all that black vinyl, it developed
a powerful personality. The first product we decided to make from these
cool labels was coasters. Waterproof-sprayed, smooth edge, with a cork
backing (as coasters should have).
We've
now shipped many thousands of these unique coasters throughout
the world. The coasters have made their way to some very famous people
like one of the members of a pretty famous band from Liverpool!
Now
what to do with all the "vinyl donuts" we've created? Next item -
Album Cover Wall Clocks. We found that cutting the square album cover
into a 12 inch round to match the vinyl remains, created quite a
remarkable look and kept the cut records out of the landfill!
Now
the wall clocks are adorning walls in many times zones across the
world. The Album Cover Wall clocks have now taken over as our #1 best
selling item!
And
if you don't find what you are looking for in our expansive
catalog, we take requests and will custom-make one for you.
