Description

This 45 rpm vinyl record features the original cover art for "Les Fiancés d'Auvergne" performed by Raymond Boisserie and his orchestra. The cover displays a color photographic visual, with a short-haired brunette woman in the foreground, posing on an accordion with pale green keys and bellows, against a neutral background. The entire cover is structured by colored bands, with the main title in pink on a white background, secondary titles in bright yellow, and the artist's name in black. The following mentions are clearly visible: "LES FIANCES D'AUVERGNE", "RENDEZ-VOUS AU MUSETTE", "ESPOIRS PERDUS-REPROCHES", as well as "Raymond BOISSERIE et son orchestre". The "Véga" logo (with the stylized V symbol) and the reference "ETS 4411" appear in the upper right corner.

The record is presented in its original 45 rpm sleeve, typical of the 1960s, with a characteristic retro aesthetic of popular music of the era. The visible side only shows the front of the sleeve, with no view of the record itself or the back. The corners of the sleeve show slight signs of wear, visible in the photo, particularly on the lower right corner, indicating previous use and prolonged storage.

The photograph on the sleeve is clear, well-centered, and highlights the musette style and the convivial atmosphere associated with Raymond Boisserie. The colors remain vibrant despite a slight patina of time. No major defects or significant tears are apparent on the visible side. The visual medium and inscriptions are legible, without significant alteration.
