AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description

Old 45 rpm vinyl record, illustrated with a vintage cardboard sleeve. The visible side features a close-up black and white photograph of Bob Martin, dressed in a light coat and holding a cigarette, against a slightly blurred urban background. His name "BOB MARTIN" appears in large yellow letters, with a thick, legible typography, occupying the lower part of the sleeve.

The upper right part displays the main title "ENCORE," followed by the tracklist: "Les enlacés," "Bambino "Guaglione"," "Quand je monte." The visible "Barclay Disques" logo accompanied by the mention "Haute Fidélité" (High Fidelity) attests to the record label and the recording process of this edition. At the bottom of the sleeve, the mention "ACCOMPANIED BY R. LEFEVRE, P. DELVINCOURT AND THEIR ORCHESTRAS" specifies the musicians who participated in the recording.

The visual reveals clear wear on the edges, notably a pronounced tear on the upper left corner, fold marks, and traces of use that confirm the item's age. The sleeve also shows scuffs and some superficial scratches, typical of vinyl records from this period.

The overall graphics, typography, and photograph suggest a production dating from the 1950s-1960s, consistent with the style of sleeves published by Barclay at that time. No details of the back or the record itself are visible in this image.

The 45 rpm format is confirmed by the appearance of the sleeve and the keywords provided; it is therefore a single record intended for playback on a standard vinyl turntable.
