AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description

45 rpm vinyl record presented with its original illustrated sleeve, visible in the photograph. This is the record "La mazurka di Carolina / Rosamunda" performed by Alceo Guatelli e la sua fisarmonica. The cardboard sleeve features a very colorful visual in a psychedelic style typical of the 1970s, dominated by vivid shades of blue, pink, yellow, and green. The illustration shows a musician playing the accordion and trumpet, surrounded by dancing figures and dynamic abstract patterns, as well as several stylized musicians to the right of the visual. The artist's name is clearly legible at the bottom of the sleeve, as are the track titles at the top.

The "Napoleon" label with the reference "MB 2046" is clearly indicated in the upper right corner of the sleeve. The tracks on the record are "La mazurka di Carolina" (mazurka) and "Rosamunda" (polka), mentioned on the front face. The ensemble gives a retro and festive look, very representative of popular Italian music production of that era.

The sleeve shows visible signs of wear, including creases, marked corners, and a general patina on the surface. However, the colors remain vibrant, and the overall piece retains an authentic vintage charm.

The item is photographed standing on a transparent support, in a bright environment, allowing for observation of the graphic details and the condition of the front of the sleeve. No details of the back are visible in this image.
