Vinyl 45 rpm Henri Génès Pathé La Gazetta de San Pedro vintage rare

AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description

This 45 rpm vinyl record features French artist Henri Génès, with an illustrated retro-style cover. On the front, the sleeve displays a typical 1960s visual, in black and white with colored elements, depicting Henri Génès sitting behind a cluttered desk (with a corded telephone, documents, and a typewriter), with his feet resting on the desk, accompanied by a woman standing, telephone in hand. The ensemble is topped with the title "LA GAZETTA DE SAN PEDRO" in capital letters, and the name "HENRI GÉNÈS" in bright, highly legible blue. At the bottom right, the "Pathé" logo is clearly visible, indicating the original record label.

The cover predominantly features orange, blue, and black colors, with graphic design characterized by the photographic and typographic style of the era. The reference number "EG 423 M" is indicated at the top right of the sleeve. Visual details include numerous period office accessories, reinforcing the humorous journalistic atmosphere characteristic of Henri Génès' world.

The vinyl is not visible in this photo; only the illustrated cover is shown. No details about the condition of the record itself are observable here. The overall appearance of the cover shows some signs of wear, including a small missing piece on the upper right corner and slight marks on the edges, typical of an old record.

At the bottom left, the mention "prod. Robello" also appears on the image. The whole offers a graphic and photographic style emblematic of French 45 rpm records produced by Pathé during the vintage period, probably the early 60s, although no precise date is legible on the visible sleeve.

This 45 rpm record, with its original sleeve and humorous visual, is a representative piece of vintage French musical production, appealing to both French song enthusiasts and fans of retro graphic design.
