Hi all,

When I am going to store the Columbia films which were released on yellow generic box, I always got the problem to what the better way in storing them. The reason was because the box did not have title written on the flip side. So everytime I was going to find a title, I had to take all those boxes and found that from the front cover.

This also happened to Universal 8 box (white plastic case).

But, thanks to the computer, I can now easily place them side by side by putting the titles on the flip side without making noticeable changes.

And this is for Universal 8

cheers,

Winbert,

Nicely done! Columbia really went the cheap route with their generic boxes. At least Universal provided stickers (Date: Title: ) to place on the sides.
