45rpm Record Collection

Hi! Thanks for your interest in my Connie Francis 45rpm Record Collection.
The main reason for putting up this page is to display the Connie Francis 45rpm record sleeves I have collected and list all the other 45's. When I started this page I had about 10 or 11 picture sleeves. Some of them were in pretty rough shape. I guess back when, I didn't realize how precious they would become to me and didn't take the best of care with them. But thanks to image editing they look pretty good on this page.
I am now starting to collect picture sleeves I do not have. Below you will see how I'm coming along.
I hope you enjoy viewing these record sleeves and the rest of the collection.
Any questions or comments, please feel free to email me!
ENJOY!

The following "collection" I found in a record store basement in Manhattan. Naturally it came from a Juke Box somewhere. The records themselves are 7" 33-1/3rpm. It doesn't have the large hole in the center like a regular 45 but a small hole like the 33. They came in a plastic envelope with just the one sheet plain picture you see below. They are all on the MGM black label. They are Stereo.

This must have come from an Italian Restaurant

Below are the secondary record numbers in order for each side.
The primary number for all records in this collection is SE3871
