Connect the Dots

The seemingly infinite number of vintage record jackets that convey their message with only simple shapes and typography never cease to amaze us. Project Thirty-Three is our personal collection and shrine to circles and dots, squares and rectangles, and triangles, and the designers that make these shapes come to life on album covers.

This site was created and is maintained by Jive Time Records, a Seattle-based store specializing in used vinyl. Visit our other record related galleries here.

Jive Time Records buys and sells quality used records in Seattle. Learn more.
