Loveless (1991)

When compact discs first began to appear in retail stores the longbox packaging served a transitional purpose. Longboxes were a tall, cardboard package used for CDs in the late 1980s and early 1990s to allow them to be displayed in record store bins alongside vinyl albums. They were 12” (30 cm) tall (the same length as the standard 33⅓ LP), and capable of containing multiple discs when necessary. The extra space allowed for more elaborate artwork than the standard small jewel cases. Most longboxes were full color, with details about the compact disc on the back and art that was reworked for the new shape and size.
