AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description

This audio cassette, visible in the photo, is a K7 format magnetic medium, released under the Carrere label. Its cover features a color photograph of Gérard Lenorman, against a blue background, with the title "Si j'étais Président" in white letters. The upper insert bears the mention "13 + 3", followed by the description "16 Chansons 16 Succès" (16 Songs 16 Hits) in white typography underlined with black, on a bright red background with a yellow border, characteristic of 1980s popular design. The "Caroline Melody" logo appears at the bottom left, in a red heart, a graphic signature of certain musical editions of that era.

The visible jacket is inserted into a transparent plastic case with right angles, typical of audio cassettes from this period. The front presentation highlights the artist's portrait, with voluminous hair and a light shirt, typical of the visual style of French pop music of the 80s. The entire visual, both in its color palette (red, blue, yellow, white) and its graphic composition, clearly evokes the retro aesthetic of this decade.

The visible side only shows the front jacket; no information about the track list, tape condition, or side panels is observable in this image. The object is placed on a wooden surface, with an old bookcase in the background, which highlights its vintage appearance without influencing the technical analysis of the object itself.

The condition appears to be generally good based on the photo: the case shows some signs of use and light superficial scratches, usual signs of a used audio cassette. No major chips or breaks are visible on the front. The printed jacket retains vibrant colors and good legibility of the inscriptions, with no major apparent discoloration.

Condition

Used item, sold as-is. Traces of wear and scratches visible on the plastic case. Front jacket in good apparent condition, with no tears or visible stains on the presented side.
