HARD BOX: The LP Series

Hand-Built Vinyl Record Merchandise Case, Created for Independent Musicians

The needs of the working-class musician are many and varied, and at Hand Drawn Records, our aim is to give artists the best tools possible to tackle those needs. In the past, we have done this in a few ways; namely via- artist promotion, brand building, recording and photography services (etc), and in early-2015 we took our largest step forward when we launched our vinyl record pressing service, Hand Drawn Pressing.

Today, we are proud to announce a new tool for the independent musician, HARD BOX: The LP Series, a custom ATA flight case built specifically to safely store/display up to 50 12" vinyl records for an incredibly durable and easy merchandise solution. The case has a high-efficiency LED encased in dense foam which both backlights the records housed in the case, plus draws focus to the display area (the lid, which is made to display one 12" LP).

What does this mean?

It means, your merch girl/guy puts the box on the table, opens the lid, puts a record in the lid, and plugs in the light. Then they better start waving people over to BUY YOUR RECORDS and get you gas money to make it to the next town!

The HARD BOX cases are customized by hand by Woodbox Creative in Bedford, Texas and were built in partnership with Hand Drawn's creative director, Dustin Blocker.
