Create small covers for your VIC-20 cartridges
In my collection of VIC-20 cartridges, I also have cartridges without the original box. I thought it would be fun to make a cover for these cartridges with some detailed information about the cartridge.
Putting them on the self it is hard to distinguish then from one another. Some people use the label machine to print strips with the title and stick that to the side. I don't want to damage the cartridge so I came up with something different. I created small sleeves. I created a Word template, which you can download here and then created a sleeve using glossy photo printer paper. At first I was looking to create an exact replica of the original box, however I changed that to creating a free impression look a like. This way I could add a scene on the sleeve and also some game information.
Tip
You can find the Word template and the different examples here , use and adapt freely. If you create your own please sent them to [email protected] I will add them to the list. cartridge-sleeve-template.docx
