AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description

This 45 rpm vinyl record features an iconic photographic sleeve of Johnny Hallyday in military attire, left profile, against a background of diffused light. The color visual highlights a young Johnny, wearing a light cap and a uniform shirt, offering a distinct 70s aesthetic. The sleeve displays the name "JOHNNY" in large blue letters at the top, followed by the main titles in black and red, which enhances readability and the graphic style of the era.

The visible side of the sleeve clearly indicates the artist Johnny Hallyday as well as the titles: "Johnny lui dit adieu", "Un ami ça n'a pas de prix" (in black), then "On te montrera du doigt" and "Maudite rivière" (in red). The Philips label logo appears at the top right and bottom right, confirming the original edition. The reference "MEDIUM 437.097 BE" is printed at the top right, typical of French pressings from this period.

The photograph on the sleeve stands out for its matte finish and soft nuances, with no pronounced glossy effect on the visible surface. The colors are well preserved: beige, blue-gray tones and touches of red on the emblems, typical of the French military uniform. No major defects are visible on the front, apart from very slight traces of use on the lower edge, common for a used copy from this era.

The record is not visible in the photo, only the front sleeve is shown. The item is displayed upright in front of a vinyl library, which highlights its interest as a piece of retro music and 70s graphic design history.

The item is an authentic vintage 45 rpm vinyl record, ideal for lovers of vintage music, French varieties, and Johnny Hallyday memorabilia. The refined presentation of the sleeve, combined with the military aesthetic, gives it a strong and recognizable visual identity in the old record market.
