Wrap up a draw is an album by reggae artist Sammy Dread. The release is undated, but likely from the 1980s. On the front cover, Dread poses in front of two earlier releases – Think Constructively and Sammy Dread is Mr. Music, both from 1982.

The display typefaces were both available from Mecanorma: Zelek (1972) is used in its Shadline style and paired with Lamina Don (1979).

Seven Leaves Records uses Gillies Gothic beneath its monogram on the record label. The back cover mentions their address in London – now home to a dentist.
