Tape Dividers Tape dividers are those nifty markers that hang over the edges of shelves in record shops, guiding us to the music of our favourite band. Not an easy item to find, unless your sister happens to work for Tower Records... The front of the US Learning To Crawl (1984) tape divider. This one is plastic. Tape divider used to promote The Singles (1987) in US shops. This one is unused (unfolded) and made out of cardboard.
