The item is an audio cassette (K7), typical of music media from the 1980s-1990s, enclosed in a rigid transparent case. The front of the cover is clearly visible, with no apparent signs of major discoloration. The overall appearance of the cover evokes a retro style, typical of compilations released to highlight an artist's greatest hits.

Did you know? Luis Mariano, a Basque tenor of Spanish origin, achieved immense success in France starting in the 1940s thanks to his interpretations of popular operettas like "La belle de Cadix".
