(Blue Sleeve)

50's -- Sleeve is a grayish-blue color and has no thumbnails and reads "The World's Greatest Artists are on RCA Victor" on one side, and "Enjoy the Music You Want - When You Want it... And Hear it Right!" on the other. I would guess they were used in the 50's and early 60's

The next is a series of sleeves with a long number at the bottom. The only difference is a letter at the end of the number. For some reason, the last catalog number of the thumbnail on the sleeve and the letter of the sleeve are wrong. In other words, Sleeve "J" has a higher catalog number than "L" (it should be the other way around). The catalog numbers don't lie, so go by them insted of the letter at the end of the sleeve number.
