The Mikrokosmos Labelography will eventually contain examples of labels from all the important companies which have issued microgroove classical records. These label examples span the entire LP era, from the first monaural disks issued in 1949 to the digital and digitally remastered LPs that appeared in the early 1980s. The starting set — which includes the binder, the plastic folders, and 144 color labels — is available from A Classical Record.
- Custom designed slip case, binder, and plastic display sheets
- Comprehensive collection of classical records labels
- New volumes will be available at 6-month intervals, each containing about 100 new labels
- New reference code easily describes each label

- Melodiya
- E.M.I.
- RCA Victor
- Decca
- Mercury

144 color labels
"I have decided to include the Labelography as part of my current offerings because I feel that this project is an important addition to record collecting. Mr. Fülöp's undertaking is commendable. The identification and cataloguing of LP labels has puzzled collectors from the beginning of this format. Once completed this will become as valuable a reference as The World Encyclopaedia of Recorded Music and The Discopaedia of the Violin. The coding of these labels will make them easily identifiable, something that will make a catalogue, such as A Classical Record's, more accurate. A worthwhile investment indeed!"
