Description

This 45 rpm vinyl record features a cardboard sleeve illustrated with a color photographic portrait of a blonde woman, identifiable as Sylvie Vartan thanks to the inscription "SYLVIE" in the upper right corner of the sleeve. The design and graphic style are typical of 1960s-70s French chanson, with a retro aesthetic characterized by the photography and typography used. On the visible side, the RCA label name and the reference "87.076 M" appear in the upper left, confirming the original edition of the record.

The sleeve displays four clearly listed tracks: "On a toutes besoin d’un homme" (We all need a man), "J’ai caché le soleil" (I hid the sun), "Deux bateaux" (Two boats), and "Face au soleil" (Facing the sun). The pastel background highlights the artist’s face, who is wearing a colorful patterned shirt and a white flower necklace, reinforcing the vintage look and retro atmosphere of the ensemble.

The cardboard support shows visible signs of wear: the bottom right corner is folded, traces and scuffs are observable on the surface, and the original shine of the sleeve has partially lost its luster. Despite these marks of time, the inscriptions and the photo remain clear and legible.

This 45 rpm record, an emblematic format for singles of the era, is designed to be played on a standard vinyl turntable. The absence of explicit indication on the vinyl itself in the photo does not allow for specifying its condition, but the sleeve corresponds well to a period edition, ideal for fans of retro French chanson.

The presentation in a library, surrounded by other vinyl records and books, highlights the object as a decorative or listening piece, typical of the vintage record world.
