The Best of the Dean Martin Variety Show, Volume 13 DVD or VHS Case Insert

This item is a printed cover insert for a home media release titled 'The Best of the Dean Martin Variety Show,' specifically Volume 13 (Thirteen) presented by Greg Garrison. The physical characteristics indicate a standard semi-gloss paper stock commonly used for DVD or VHS sleeve inserts. The color palette features a black upper section with white and orange typography, transitioning into an orange-gold lower section. Centered is a photographic portrait of Dean Martin in a tuxedo and bow tie set against a purple-bordered frame. Notable markings include a list of guest stars such as Flip Wilson, Joey Heatherton, Paul Lynde, Ann-Margret, and others, though several names are obscured. The condition of the piece is significantly compromised; there is a large area of surface loss and paper tearing at the bottom center and right, likely from the removal of an adhesive label or moisture damage, which has stripped away much of the text and graphic layer. This damage reveals the white fibrous paper core beneath the ink. The manufacturing details suggest a release from the late 1990s or early 2000s, typical of Guthrie Enterprises or Time-Life video collections. The overall craftsmanship is commercial-grade mass-production, intended for retail or mail-order distribution. The visible wear, including corner folding and surface abrasions, greatly detracts from its collectability.
