A white/transparent smudge on the clear plastic part holding the tape of a VHS. It appears like a fingerprint or stress damage from shipping? This was a partially sealed VHS.
The smudge is less noticeable in person, but it is possible moisture may have gotten in depending on where the VHS was stored.
Can anyone tell me if this is mold? It is on the clear plastic part, not the tape. Less noticeable in person. This was a sealed VHS with a small hole in the cellophane. I know sealed VHS are often more susceptible to mold. Just opened it - All Dogs Go to Heaven 2 from 1996. #vhscollecting #vhs
