AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description

45 rpm vinyl record presented in its original sleeve, brightly illustrated in colors typical of the 1970s retro style. The sleeve features graphic ornamentation with orange, brown, and yellow geometric shapes, circular patterns, and striped bands. The central visual highlights a photograph of Bill Haley performing, guitar in hand, wearing a light-colored jacket and dark tie, in front of a microphone. The main title "ROCK AROUND THE CLOCK" is printed in yellow letters on a brown/orange background, above "DANCE FOR EVER" in blue lettering with a frame. The serial number "23" appears on the right, while the bottom of the sleeve displays the second title "SEE YOU LATER ALLIGATOR" in white letters. The name "BILL HALEY" is prominently featured in a bright yellow cartouche. The EMI and Columbia logos are clearly visible in the top left.

The sleeve shows visible signs of wear, including marked creases, scratches, and blunted corners, attesting to prior use and its vintage authenticity. The colors remain vibrant despite the wear, and the graphic style evokes the pop and festive aesthetic of classic rock'n'roll. The visible side only shows the sleeve, with the record not being out in the photo. No information about the back of the sleeve or the condition of the vinyl itself is observable.

Legible inscriptions include:
- "ROCK AROUND THE CLOCK"
- "DANCE FOR EVER"
- "BILL HALEY"
- "SEE YOU LATER ALLIGATOR"
- "EMI", "Columbia", "stereo", "23", and the reference "2C 010-97004" in the top left

This record is for anyone looking for an iconic 45 rpm from the rock'n'roll repertoire, in an edition marked by the graphic style of the 70s, released under the EMI Columbia label, with two great Bill Haley classics.
