Vintage Claude François audio cassette 16 songs 80s retro K7 Carrere

AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description

Audio cassette of K7 type visible in the image, featuring a cover illustrated with a color photographic portrait of Claude François, an iconic French singer. The front cover announces "13+3" and "16 Chansons 16 Succès" (16 Songs 16 Hits), with a graphic layout typical of popular productions from the 80s. The name "Claude François" appears in white letters on a grey background, clearly legible and centered below the title. The dominant colors are red, yellow, white, and grey, with geometric graphic elements that evoke the period when the cassette was released.

The bottom right corner of the cover displays the "Disques Flèche" logo and the mention "Distribution Carrere", two labels associated with Claude François' discography in the 1970s-1980s. The cover appears to be protected by a standard transparent plastic audio cassette case, whose surface shows visible signs of wear (scratches, superficial marks, slight smudges on the front).

The design of the cover, the typography, and the photograph of the singer are characteristic of the late 70s and early 80s, a period during which hit compilations were frequently released in this format. No other elements (back cover, magnetic tape, inner insert) are visible in the photo, so the description focuses solely on the front cover and what is observable through the case.

The case has a classic rectangular shape, adapted to the audio K7 format. The photograph is clear, well-centered, and the overall visual clearly reflects a retro style, in line with the keywords "vintage" and "retro".

Condition

Used item, sold as is. The cover and case show signs of wear and visible marks on the surface, typical of past use.
