AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description

The record presented here is an Elvis Presley 33 rpm vinyl, titled "Le Disque d’Or" (The Gold Record), released by RCA and distributed by Impact. The cover visible in the photo features a yellow background adorned with a color portrait of Elvis Presley, smiling, wearing a light jacket over a white shirt. The top of the jacket displays the artist's name in imposing black letters: "ELVIS PRESLEY".

The upper part of the cover also indicates several tracks included on this record, such as "Tonight is so right for love", "I’ll be there", "Guadalajara", "Santa Lucia", "C’mon everybody", "Easy come, easy go", "Long legged girl", "A little less conversation" and "Angel", followed by "Etc.", indicating the presence of other tracks. The text "GRAVURE UNIVERSELLE" (UNIVERSAL ENGRAVING) is also visible in the top left. The bottom right corner mentions the RCA label and "Distribution Impact".

A golden sticker affixed to the cover bears the inscription "LE DISQUE D’OR" (THE GOLD RECORD) as well as a handwritten price (3.50) on a yellow background. A second sticker, in the top left, indicates "ENREGISTREMENTS ORIGINAUX" (ORIGINAL RECORDINGS). The jacket shows a slightly weathered appearance, with traces of wear visible mainly around the edges, especially on the borders and corners, which is typical for this type of vintage musical medium. The visible side does not show any major tears, but handling marks are noticeable.

The 33 rpm format is explicitly indicated in the keywords. This format corresponds to the standard LP (long play) allowing for extended listening on a vinyl player. The photograph does not show the record itself, only the front cover is visible.

The general aesthetic, typography, and colors suggest an edition produced in the 1970s, typical of French reissues of the period, but this is not explicitly confirmed on the visible side.

Condition

Used item sold as is. The cover shows signs of wear and patina, particularly on the edges and corners, as well as some visible handling marks on the surface. The visual remains legible, and the inscriptions are well-preserved on the front side.
