AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description

This 45 rpm vinyl features the original cover of "Video Killed the Radio Star" by The Buggles, a classic from the late 1970s new wave pop scene. The visible side shows a stylized graphic illustration of two characters in yellow shirts and green ties against a background of horizontal lines, typical of the retro design of the era. The song title appears in large white letters, framed by quotation marks, with "ORIGINAL VERSION" in red below the band name "BUGGLES" in gold letters.

In the upper left corner, a red badge indicates "n°1 in England," highlighting the success of this title upon its release. The Island label logo is clearly visible in the lower right, confirming the original edition. The entire cover displays a graphic style very characteristic of the 1970s-1980s, with a contrasting and colorful visual that immediately catches the eye.

The cover shows visible signs of wear, including creased corners, scuff marks, and some small scratches on the cardboard surface, which attests to its authenticity and history. The colors remain vibrant and the main print remains clearly legible despite these signs of time.

The rectangular design, typography, and graphics fully reflect the pop and synthetic aesthetic of the period, making it an iconic item for any vintage music or 70s/80s pop culture enthusiast.

This 45 rpm record is a sought-after physical music medium, perfect for listening on a turntable or displaying for its decorative and historical value. The visible side only shows the cover, with no view of the record itself or any additional information on the back or inside.
