.....I have to disagree with you completely.

I can recall STMA and STML prefix Tamla Motown LPs distributed by EMI with laminated sleeves well into the 1970s.
I have a UK issued gatefold album by Gayle McCormick on ABC/Dunhill, I think that's the label, but It hasn't been posted anywhere yet.
I think it is 1971. Laminated.

Laminated LPs
Jackson 5, The Greatest Hits STML 11212, 1971
Stevie Wonder Music Of My Mind STMA 8002, 1972
S. Robinson & The Miracles Greatest Hits Vol. 2 STML 11233, 1973
Marvin Gaye Marvin Gaye Live! STMA 8018, 1974
Various Motown Chartbusters Vol. 9 STML 11270, 1974
Marvelettes, The The Best Of The Marvelettes STML 11258, 1975
Various Tamla Motown Presents 20 Mod Classics STML 12125, 1979
Various Tamla Motown Presents 20 Mod Classics Vol. 2 STML 12133, 1980

These are all first issue in UK, not budget label, or reissues.

I was in retailing/wholesaling records during the 1970s up to early 1980s, so the old memory got a good workout......... :read:
