45 rpm vinyl record Hervé Vilard Mercury vintage picture sleeve FR

AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description
French 45 rpm vinyl record presented in its original illustrated sleeve, featuring singer Hervé Vilard. The visible side shows a predominantly white cardboard sleeve, adorned with a large color photograph of the artist's smiling face, typical of the 60s-70s, against a light background. At the top, the name "HERVÉ" appears in large aqua letters, followed by "VILARD" in red, creating a striking visual contrast.

On the right, a turquoise blue area lists the four tracks on this record: "Mourir ou vivre", "Ne te marie pas Sophie", "Viens la nuit nous appelle", and "Il faut croire en demain". The Mercury Records logo is printed at the bottom right, confirming the record label. At the top left is the reference "152056 MCE".

The sleeve shows visible signs of wear, including marks, scuffs, and slight discoloration on the surface, signs of an old object handled and stored over time. No major defects are visible on the side shown, but the general patina confirms its vintage authenticity.

The graphic design and typography, as well as the photograph of the singer, clearly evoke the French pop aesthetic of the 60s and 70s, a period of great popularity for Hervé Vilard. The square format and the mention "45 tours" suggest that this is a standard vinyl single for that era.

The visible side does not show the record itself or the back of the sleeve. Only the front cover and its details are observable in the provided photo.
