Vinyl record RIGAUDRIOLES Jean Rigaux sketches old vintage Arbois

AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description

This old vinyl record features a color photograph of Jean Rigaux, a famous French comedian, on its cover. He is holding a bottle of wine and wearing a gray suit with a light shirt and a patterned tie. The entire jacket adopts a retro advertising style, typical of the 1960s-1970s, with a play of colorful typographies and a distinctive graphic composition.

The visible side of the sleeve displays the inscription "un verre d’Arbois… et ZIPP! c’est parti!" (a glass of Arbois… and ZIPP! here we go!) in a black handwritten font at the top. In the center, the mention "RIGAUDRIOLES" is printed in multi-colored capital letters (blue, yellow, pink), emphasizing the humorous and festive nature of the record.

Below, we find the mention "sketches inédits de Jean Rigaux pour le vigneron Henri Maire" (unreleased sketches by Jean Rigaux for winemaker Henri Maire), suggesting that this record offers humorous sketches specially created for the promotion of Arbois wine, produced by the Henri Maire estate. The whole evokes an original advertising operation combining humor and wine-growing tradition.

The square-shaped sleeve has a matte finish, slightly patinated by time, with some visible traces of use on the surface (slight marks or small smudges). No other details are visible on the presented side.

The visible record is a vinyl, probably a 33 or 45 rpm, with no clear size indication on the jacket. The mention "ancien" (old) and the graphic style confirm the vintage aspect of this object, sought after as much for its decorative value as for its period sound content.

Condition

Second-hand item sold as is, untested. The visual condition of the sleeve shows some signs of use and traces of aging, typical of an old record. No details on the condition of the vinyl are visible in this image.

Did you know? Jean Rigaux was a renowned humorist and chansonnier from the 1950s to the 1970s. The "Rigaudrioles" are original sketches written to promote Arbois wines, a renowned appellation from the Jura region, and more particularly the Henri Maire estate, a pioneer of wine marketing in France at that time.
