Talk about eye-candy! Colored vinyl 45s are rewarding to collect not only because they're so beautiful, featuring every color possible and then some, but they can be valuable as well. Many colored vinyl 45s were promotional-only items, but a number of retail releases had at least part of their press run on colored vinyl as well. Scroll down the page to see the wide variety of color styles you can find, and notice that colored vinyl 45s span all decades and are commonly used by small independent labels even today.
Note: The labels are shown in roughly alphabetical order by artist name (first, last). Last Updated 03/29/22, this page shows 217 45s.
