Vintage Carrascosa Fontana 45 RPM Vinyl - En la Noche Clara, Viva La Tuna

AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Detailed visual description

This 45 rpm vinyl record features a cardboard sleeve illustrated on the front. The jacket depicts a group of musicians dressed in traditional costumes, adorned with colorful ribbons, playing the guitar in front of a monumental statue in an urban setting. The dominant colors of the sleeve are blue, black, and bright touches brought by the ribbons. The photographic print is typical of productions from the second half of the 20th century, with a striking graphic design and colorful lettering.

At the top of the sleeve, the titles are clearly inscribed: "Carrascosa - En la noche clara", "La Aurora - Viva La tuna", with a visible reference code at the top right (467 713 TE). The Fontana label logo appears in black and white on the right side, a distinctive element of this record company's editions. The typography, alternating blue and pink, evokes a pop aesthetic, probably from the 60s or 70s.

The sleeve shows visible signs of wear: marked creases and friction marks, particularly on the bottom left, as well as blunt corners. These marks indicate prolonged handling and storage, characteristic of a vintage used record. No other major defects are visible on the front.

The vinyl itself is not visible in the photo; only the sleeve is. The main and secondary inscriptions are all legible and faithfully transcribed. The scene depicted adds a folkloric touch, with a festive atmosphere typical of Spanish university groups ("tuna").
