AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description

This listing is for a K7 audio cassette, visible in its original plastic case. The label on the j-card clearly indicates the artist Maurice Murcia, with the title "Midi Musette". The front of the j-card features a color photograph of Maurice Murcia playing the accordion, against the backdrop of the port of Marseille, visually anchoring the repertoire in the Marseillaise musical tradition. Several titles are mentioned, including "Au Soleil de Marseille", "Marseille Mes Amours", "La Canebière" and "Miette".

The design of the j-card, predominantly blue and white, showcases a retro aesthetic typical of musical productions from the 80s to 90s. The official logos of the City of Marseille and the Provence-Alpes-Côte d’Azur Region are visible at the bottom left and right of the j-card respectively, indicating local institutional support or collaboration. A note also states: "With the participation of the City of Marseille and the Regional Council".

The transparent, rigid case reveals the cassette inside. No inscriptions are visible on the spine or back; only the front and top of the j-card are visible in this photo. The case shows some signs of use and light scratches, consistent with a vintage item that has been used and stored.

The graphic style and photography suggest a typical production from cassettes produced in the late 20th century, with a sober layout and direct color printing. The ensemble is representative of the traditional iconography of regional French music, particularly that related to the accordion and the musette repertoire.

Condition

Used item, sold as is, as seen in the photo. The case shows slight traces and marks of use. Original j-card in good overall condition with no apparent tears on the visible front.
