AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description

This 45 rpm vinyl record features the soundtrack of the Japanese animated film "Andromeda Stories," identifiable by its cover illustrated with a female character with pink hair, in a colorful outfit typical of 1980s anime aesthetics. The central visual highlights a stylized drawing, on a cosmic background, reflecting the science fiction universe of this work. The inscriptions on the cover, in Japanese and English, confirm the title "ANDROMEDA STORIES" in yellow and red lettering, as well as the "VAP" label in the upper right, with the reference 10032-07 and the original price (¥700).

The visible side of the cover also indicates "STEVANY (ステファニー)" for the main title, and several mentions in Japanese detailing the musical themes associated with the series. The jacket is protected by a transparent plastic sleeve, which has preserved the vibrancy of the colors and the clarity of the inscriptions. The graphics, very representative of Japanese animated productions from the early 1980s, immediately catch the eye with their dynamic style and sharp contrasts.

The record is clearly identifiable as a simple 45 rpm single, a standard format for this type of Japanese musical production related to animation. The cover shows good structural integrity, with no visible tears or major creases on the observed front side. The typography details, as well as the "VAP" label logo and the "STEREO" mention, confirm the authenticity and Japanese origin of this edition.

The detailed graphics, the vibrant color palette (dominant black, yellow, pink, and blue), as well as the presence of several Japanese inscriptions, are elements sought after by fans of anime vinyl records and vintage Japanese cultural products. The illustrated character, typical of manga/science fiction design of the era, evokes a graphic style similar to major Japanese animated productions of the early 80s.

The top edge of the cover, visible in the photo, does not show excessive wear or significant snags. The protective plastic surface suggests an overall satisfactory state of preservation, with a well-centered print and vibrant colors.
