AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description

This 45 RPM vinyl record features the French musical duo Line and Willy, photographed on the cover. The sleeve shows the two artists outdoors, in front of a plant background, with Line in a checkered shirt and Willy in a red sweater, holding a guitar. The dominant colors are natural, with a contrast between the green of the background and the warm tones of the sweater and hair.

The visible side of the sleeve displays the following titles, inscribed in white and yellow letters: "POURQUOI PAS NOUS", "MESSIEURS, MESDAMES, MESDEMOISELLES", "GREGORY", and "ROSE DES JARDINS". The inscription "Chanson Lauréate de la Rose de France de la Chanson 1966" appears below the main title, indicating the song's recognition at the time.

The AZ label logo appears at the bottom left, with the reference "EP1 047" clearly legible. The overall presentation suggests a typical French edition from the 1960s, both in terms of graphics and photographic style.

The sleeve appears to be in good overall condition for an item of this period, with some light signs of wear visible on the edges, but no apparent tearing on the front face. No other accessories or elements are visible in the provided photo.

This 45 RPM record, also known as a single or EP (extended play), is sought after for its retro aesthetic and historical interest, particularly among fans of 1960s French music.

Condition

Used item sold as is, untested. The visual condition of the sleeve is consistent with its age, with superficial marks of use, visible in the photograph.

Did you know? The AZ label, founded in 1961 by Lucien Morisse, played a major role in promoting French chanson during the 1960s, launching many popular artists of that era. 45 RPM records were then the dominant format for broadcasting new titles on the radio.
