AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description

This 45 rpm vinyl record features an illustrated cover on its front, showcasing Dorothée, an emblematic figure of French children's music, associated with the universe of the "Candy" cartoon. The visual shows a photographic portrait of Dorothée on the left, dressed in light-colored clothing, accompanied by the title "les nouvelles chansons de Candy" (Candy's new songs) written in purple and pink handwritten letters. On the right, a colorful illustration of the character Candy is visible, recognizable by her curly blonde hair adorned with two red bows and her white-collared outfit with a pink polka-dotted dress. The cover's background is pale blue, evoking a soft and childlike aesthetic typical of 1980s youth music productions.

Several handwritten signatures in black felt-tip pen are visible on the front of the cover, including one at the top left ("Katy Marzatti") and another on Dorothée's portrait. These inscriptions give a unique character to the offered copy, although their authenticity cannot be verified here. The cover also features the Toei Animation logo, mentioning "Mizuki Igarashi - Pictural Films," highlighting the official link with the Japanese animated series "Candy."

At the bottom right, the "45T" and "disques AB" logos indicate the record's format and the production company, confirming that it is a 45 rpm single. There is also a small full-body female illustration, typical of the graphic style of the era. The reference number "11.052" appears at the top right of the cover.

The cover shows visible signs of wear: pronounced creases on the lower left part, wrinkles and small marks on the surface, typical of a used vinyl record that has survived several decades. However, the overall appearance remains legible, and its visuals are displayed without major alteration of the prints or main colors.

Did you know? The AB Disques label, which produced Dorothée's titles, marked the history of youth music in France in the 80s and 90s. "Candy" is an adaptation of the Japanese manga "Candy Candy," whose animated series was a huge success on French channels, contributing to Dorothée's popularity as a performer of theme songs and songs associated with cartoons.
