Graphic Design: A look at which creatives did some of the Secret 7" record sleeves

Date
23 April 2014

And so as Secret 7” draws to a close for another year, it’s always interesting to keep an eye on the big reveal. The sleeves went on sale anonymously on Record Store Day at the weekend, but after that the organisers open up about who did what. So peruse some of those sleeves designed by creatives we know and love below, from Paul Smith and Jeremy Deller to former It’s Nice That Graduates Sarah Maycock and Pat Bradbury.

As ever the real winners are the War Child charity (on whose eBay page you can still bid on the available records) and those who got their lucky mitts on a sleeve (whose joy was captured neatly at the on-site photobooth.).
