Audio Cassette Tape Appraisal

Keystone Cassette Tape

This item is a cassette tape, standard in size (approximately 4 x 2.5 x 0.5 inches) and constructed from clear plastic with a paper j-card insert. The artwork on the j-card prominently features a mountainous landscape with a dramatic sky, possibly depicting a sunrise or sunset given the orange and purple hues. The word 'Keystone' is written in a stylized, bold font, suggesting the name of the band or album. The cassette likely contains audio recordings, most probably music, given the typical usage of cassette tapes with artistic covers. Visible condition issues are minimal; the clear plastic case appears somewhat scuffed, indicative of general handling and age rather than significant damage. The j-card itself seems to be in good condition, showing no obvious tears or major creases from what is discernible. The item belongs to the popular music storage medium of the 1970s, 80s, and early 90s, suggesting an estimated age within that period. The clarity of the plastic and the overall presentation suggest mass production, typical for commercial music releases. No specific manufacturing details such as a record label logo, catalog number, or copyright information are clearly visible on the tape itself or the spine of the j-card in the provided image.
