Frame-Ums turn album jackets into wall art
Leonard Shustack of Genius Marketing Inc. in Walden NY sells Frame-Ums clear acrylic frames to display old album jackets as art. He argues CDs diminish jacket art but this creates demand for wall displays of iconic sleeves like Sgt Pepper and Pink Floyd. He says collecting art and album covers offers emotional connection and exclusivity. He notes CDs may be easier to replace yet the jacket remains a visual symbol of the record.

State Trooper Virgil Stammeyer, 64, shot in the shoulder and throat during a high speed chase near Maquoketa on June 22, says he does not feel like a hero and seeks no medals. He remained in recovery in Dubuque as Robert Douglas faces murder and attempted murder charges. Stammeyer, oldest trooper in the Iowa State Patrol, was near retirement when wounded and fears lasting voice damage. He hopes life returns to normal amid reporters and well wishers.
