AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description

This audio CD features a compilation of songs performed by Édith Piaf, an iconic figure of French chanson. The cover, visible in the photo, shows a black and white portrait of the smiling artist against a dark background, with the mention "Edith Piaf" and the title "L'Homme à la moto" (The Man with the Motorcycle) inscribed in the upper right. The name "Piaf" appears in distinctive red characters, while the rest of the text is in white, in a handwritten, modern typography.

The case is a classic clear jewel case for CDs, with a black spine visible on the left. The front cover, in excellent visual condition, highlights the vintage aspect of the presentation through the choice of black and white and the period photograph of Édith Piaf. No major defects are visible on the displayed side, apart from some light signs of use on the transparent plastic, typical of used CD cases.

The highly contrasted photograph on the cover recalls the aesthetics of the 1950s-1960s, a period when Edith Piaf reached the peak of her career. No other text, label, or logo is visible on the front. The main title, "L'Homme à la moto," suggests that this CD includes at least this iconic track, probably accompanied by other of the artist's flagship titles.

The case is presented closed, with only the front side visible. No details of the back, right spine, or internal booklet are observable in this image. The arrangement of the CD on a wooden background, with old books in the background, reinforces the retro aspect and the enhancement of the object.

Condition
