Vinyl 45 RPM Boney M Rivers Of Babylon old vintage Hansa Carrere retro

AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description

45 RPM vinyl single, with a color photograph on the sleeve showing the group Boney M. in light stage costumes against a dark background, enhanced by lighting effects typical of the late 1970s. The titles "Rivers Of Babylon" and "Brown Girl In The Ring" are printed large, with the group's name highlighted by a silver graphic, characteristic of the disco-pop style of the era. The Hansa Records logo is visible at the bottom left, and the mention Carrere on the right, two iconic labels of European music production from that period.

The sleeve shows visible signs of wear: handling marks, slightly blunted corners, surface scratches, and handwritten inscriptions in blue and black marker on the front (including "DA" and an illegible signature). A blue label "mashmouth 753 12.70" is affixed to the bottom right. The original colors remain vibrant despite some patina.

The overall design of the sleeve, with its galactic motifs and typical lettering, perfectly evokes the visual aesthetic of late 1970s pop-disco vinyls. The photograph of the group, seated and close-up, reflects the collective and festive image associated with Boney M.

The back, the disc itself, and the condition of the vinyl are not visible in the photo and therefore cannot be described. Only the front of the sleeve is available for analysis.
