AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description

This 45 rpm vinyl record features an iconic cover with a vintage aesthetic, depicting a close-up of Mireille Mathieu's face. The artist's name, "mireille mathieu," appears in orange letters at the top, while the title "pardonne-moi ce caprice d’enfant" is inscribed in white just below. The glossy cover photograph offers a tight crop on the singer's eyes and upper face, typical of French record layouts from the 60s-70s. The typography and color palette, combined with this portrait style, give the whole a marked retro character, ideal for lovers of old French music and period graphic design.

The cover visible in the image only shows the front, with no indication of the back or the condition of the internal record. No additional details about the record label, reference number, or secondary tracks are visible on this side. The image shows a slight sheen on the surface, a sign of original lamination or varnish, frequently used to protect vinyl covers at that time.

The observed format corresponds to the standard 45 rpm, recognizable by the proportion of the cover and the presentation of the main title. This type of record, very common during the second half of the 20th century, was the preferred medium for releasing singles and key album excerpts. The graphic choice highlights Mireille Mathieu's notoriety, an essential figure in French song, whose intense gaze occupies almost the entire cover.

The photograph was taken in a warm environment, showcasing the cover on a wooden cabinet in front of a bookshelf, which emphasizes the vintage character and decorative dimension of the object. No major flaws are visible on the front, although slight traces of use may be perceived in glancing light, typical of an old record.

This 45 rpm vinyl record is an excellent choice for lovers of retro music, 60s/70s graphic design, and French song memorabilia.
