Graphic Design: Russian cassette tapes of yesteryear were super cool

Date
16 August 2013

We have lovely blog Present & Correct to thank for this collection of old Russian cassette tape inserts, which demonstrate retro design at its absolute greatest. Between the colour scheme of black and white teamed with one vibrant alternative, the recurring half-tone, the chunky fonts and the occasional funny looking label thrown in for good measure, I feel a bit like I’ve stepped through a doorway and emerged in the kind of record shop my dad used to frequent in the 1990s. And I really like it.
