AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description

This 45 rpm vinyl record features Franck Olivier, a prominent figure in French music, with the track "Souviens Toi d’Only You" on the A-side and "Lorelei" on the B-side. The sleeve, in the typical square format of 45 rpm singles, has a vibrant green border around a color photographic portrait of the artist, smiling against a light blue background. The main text is printed in yellow and white letters, clearly legible at the top and bottom of the front cover.

The upper part of the sleeve displays the singer's name "FRANCK OLIVIER" and the main title "SOUVIENS TOI D’ONLY YOU" in large letters. At the bottom, the title "LORELEI" appears in a white cartouche on a green background. The "Gacimo Records" logo is clearly visible in the bottom left, confirming the publishing label. Several legal notices and addresses are also printed at the bottom of the sleeve, including that of the fan club in Paris and the mention of the distributor RCA.

The overall design, bold colors, and typography are characteristic of French pop productions from the late 1970s to early 1980s. The artist's photograph occupies most of the sleeve, giving it a promotional look typical of that era. The photographer's credit, "Photo D. Jérome," is also noted on the right side.

The sleeve visible in the photo shows slightly worn corners, indicating prior use, with no tears or major apparent marks on the displayed side. Secondary information, such as the references "74. 558 S" and "AC 110," is present on the upper right part.

Condition

Used item sold as is. The visible wear primarily affects the edges and corners of the sleeve, with slight signs of age. The front remains legible and presents well for display or listening.

Did you know? The 45 rpm format was the preferred medium for distributing singles in France from the 1960s and 1970s. It allowed artists to promote a flagship track accompanied by a B-side, often unreleased or complementary, and played a key role in the careers of many variety singers.
