Richard Anthony La Leçon de Twist vintage Columbia 45 RPM vinyl record

AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description

45 rpm vinyl record presented with its original, color-illustrated sleeve. The front of the sleeve features a close-up photograph of Richard Anthony, wearing a light-colored sweater and shirt, against a bluish indoor background where a woman, a lamp, and a frame can be seen in the background. The overall style is typical of the 1960s, both in terms of typography and photographic staging.

The main title "LA LEÇON DE TWIST" appears at the top, accompanied by the list of secondary titles: "le vagabond", "ne t'en fais pas, mon vieux", "ya ya". The artist's name, Richard Anthony, is inscribed in clearly legible yellow letters at the bottom center of the sleeve. The Columbia label logo is visible at the bottom right, along with the mention "Photo Marouani".

The sleeve shows visible signs of wear, including creases, wrinkles, and age marks on the edges and corners, typical of a vintage vinyl record handled and stored for several decades. No back cover or condition of the record itself is visible in the photo.

This record is a 45 rpm format, as indicated in the additional keywords. The presentation and graphics are characteristic of French productions from the early 60s, a period during which Richard Anthony was a major figure in the yéyé scene.

The inscriptions are clear, with good readability on the front. The visual of the sleeve, with its indoor ambiance and pastel color palette, gives this item a retro charm appreciated by lovers of French music and vintage graphic design.
