AFW - Antique France Worldwide
Description
This cinema magazine, visible in the photo, is an issue of the famous French periodical STARFIX, dated November 1985 (number 30). The cover features a color portrait of actress Nastassja Kinski, with mentions dedicated to her confessions and career, as well as sections on other leading cinema topics of the era. The typical 80s layout, with its blocks of white text on a colored background and massive fonts, gives this issue a decidedly retro aesthetic, easily identifiable by enthusiasts of old magazines or vintage graphic design.
The magazine features a soft, satin-finish cover, predominantly white, pale pink, and sea green. The main titles, such as "KINSKI STAR", "BEINEIX TOURNE", "L’ANNÉE DU DRAGON" (Year of the Dragon), and "HAREM", are printed in capital letters, illustrating STARFIX's editorial diversity during this period, between exclusive interviews, reports, and movie posters. The STARFIX logo appears at the top, partially obscured by the photograph, with the subtitle "L’ÉVÉNEMENT CINÉMA" (The Cinema Event).
At the bottom of the cover are the publication details: "M 2654 - N°30 - 18 F", as well as prices for Belgium, Switzerland, and Canada, typical of the international distribution of this monthly magazine. The overall visible condition is very clean: the cover is well-preserved, with no apparent tears or major marks; only a few minor creases are visible on the top edge, indicating careful handling for a periodical of this era.
According to the cover, this issue offers an exclusive interview and report on Beineix and the film "37,2 Le Matin" (Betty Blue), a feature on Michael Cimino's "L’Année du Dragon" (Year of the Dragon), and first photos from the film "Harem". All of this testifies to the rich editorial content of STARFIX, a magazine renowned for its analyses, interviews, and never-before-seen visuals covering international and French cinema of the 80s.
The spine visible in the photo indicates classic stapled binding for magazine press of that period. No major defects are visible on the presented side, the cover's shine is preserved, and the colors remain vibrant, without notable discoloration.
