VHS Cassette Robinson Crusoe retro old adventure movie vintage

AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description

This VHS cassette features the film "Robinson Crusoe," an adaptation of Daniel Defoe's work, as clearly indicated on the front cover. The visible side presents a color photograph of the main character dressed in an animal-skin-like costume, in nature, with his arm raised to the sky, typical of 70s-80s adventure visuals. The cover has a simple graphic design, with two slanted yellow bands bearing the inscriptions "ROBINSON CRUSOE" and "based on Daniel Defoe," against a slightly aged beige background. A blue element, like a ribbon or graphic label, appears on the right side, adding a colorful touch characteristic of VHS editions from that period.

The rectangular case, in standard VHS format, reveals a blue edge on the right, suggesting an edition with a partially wrapping cover. The cover photograph is framed in black, highlighting the central visual and the adventure theme. The bottom of the cover has a handwritten inscription "F080," likely an internal reference or video club marking, indicating prior use. No publisher's logo or brand mention is visible on the front, which is common for some old or generic editions.

The slightly grainy print quality, faded colors, and graphic style suggest an edition likely dating from the 1980s or very early 1990s, a period when literary adaptations on VHS were widely distributed in video clubs and homes. The visible overall condition shows slightly worn edges, with no apparent tears on the shown side. The main visual is well-centered and shows no major signs of alteration, apart from the typical patina of an old object.

Condition

Used item, sold as is, with visible signs of wear on the cover (blunted edges, patina, handwritten inscription). The front remains legible and well-preserved for a piece of this type.
