AFW - Antique France Worldwide
Description
45 RPM vinyl record presented in its original illustrated sleeve. The sleeve features the band's name "Status Quo" in bold white and red letters, as well as the main title "Whatever You Want" in matching typography, clearly visible on the front. An emperor penguin, depicted with a red belt, occupies the central part, against a white and red background. This composition, typical of the late 1970s, reflects a direct and bold graphic style, characteristic of rock productions from that era.
At the bottom left of the sleeve is also the inscription "HARD RIDE", probably the title of the B-side. The ensemble evokes the visual identity of classic rock vinyl singles, with an quirky and striking visual, true to the spirit of the band Status Quo.
The sleeve shows visible signs of wear, including creases, a slight distortion on the cardboard, as well as an adhesive mark at the bottom left. A small tear or rip mark is also visible at the bottom right. These signs of use are common on vintage editions and testify to its authenticity.
The vinyl is not visible in the photo, but the presence of the original sleeve and the display of the main titles confirm that it is a 45 RPM single, a standard format for this type of production at the time.
The overall design and typography recall British rock productions of the period, with a style immediately recognizable by fans of the genre. The penguin illustration adds a touch of humor or originality characteristic of vinyl record sleeves from that era.
