Obscure Beatles imports, charming kitschy travel albums, and dozens of records about food are among the infinite categories of album covers found on the LP Cover Lover Tumblr. But the site isn't all jokes. For every cringeworthy novelty sleeve, there's another with gorgeous vintage typography, or a bold design we wouldn't mind seeing on a new release. True to Tumblr form, the site also posts iconic images from rock history involving album covers, including Bruce Springsteen admiring Born to Run in a record store window, and snapshots from the original manufacturing of Rubber Soul.

Follow LP Cover Lover on Tumblr and, like the last century of album sleeves, sometimes it's NSFW.
