BLOCKBUSTER - Audio Cassette (AC) ~1989 - US/CA
Made in China for Blockbuster, Canada from 1985+ on wards.
These are type I, but I think they best fit the "creative" category of type "0". ;)
These are not easy tapes to find sealed. Their only real value is nostalgic. Don't expect these to give you superb recordings.
Note 1: 90 Minutes: Only (1) available. These are rather difficult to find. Light to moderately scuffed. Label is not sitting nice and flat on the cassette shell, well, not on the "A" side at least. Pictures do not show this though, sorry. Case has a small crack on one of its sides. See last picture.

See the AI overview on the Blockbuster Cassette tape below::
BLOCKBUSTER sold compact cassette audio tapes for roughly two decades, from the mid-1980s, when they began to focus on music sales, until the early 2000s when they sold their music division. This period roughly coincides with the peak popularity and subsequent decline of the cassette tape format. Blockbuster also had a retail chain called Blockbuster Music, which was formed from acquisitions in the early 1990s, and later sold off in 1998.
