Help with used records.

I just got back from the thrift shop with 5 records, Prince - Sign Of The Times, Prince - 1999, Stanley Clarke - Stanley Clarke, Stanley Clarke - School Days and Johnny Cash - Mean As Hell all of these records are in great shape with very clean vinyl and jackets for $3 each.

Here is the problem that I have, I hope someone can help me with this. When you peel the price tag off of the jacket it leaves a stick residue, is there any way to get this off of the jacket or is there a way to get the tag off without damaging the jacket?

Thanks for any help you can provide.

Acetone. It is available in art supply stores and doesn't harm the surface that the sticker is on. I use it all the time. (WD-40 works similarly, but is a b*tch to control the spray and clean up.)

Actually nose OIL and behind the ear Grease are used a lot in sharpening fine tools by old craftsmen. And for some it is just self amusement:) Put a little on your dogs nose and watch him go nuts.

Acetone & 100% isopropyl alcohol work equally well. Only problem is that it also can (likely will in my experience) remove the printers ink along with the adhesive residue. Caveat utilitor.
