J-card






Shell and back of J-card for a Soviet (Russian) 45-minute cassette tape.


A j-card is the paper card inserted in the plastic storage case of most pre-recorded audio cassette releases, as well as cassettes of bootleg or copied concerts of the jam band scene. The j-card usually contains an image of the album cover, a track listing, credits, and copyright information. Most j-cards contain the name of the content recorded onto the cassette on the edge for quick reference while in storage.


The j-card gets its name from being folded into the shape of the letter J (when viewed from the side) to fit inside the cassette's case.


Today, custom made CD-R covers are often called J-cards.
J-card-style covers were used in CD covers in the 1990s for single cases and are still used today.
