Ivan Rebroff CBS Le Temps des Fleurs 45 rpm vinyl vintage black sleeve

AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description
45 RPM vinyl record, presented in its original sleeve. The visible side shows a predominantly black photographic sleeve, adorned with a large black and white portrait of Ivan Rebroff in winter attire, looking at the camera. The printed inscriptions at the top clearly state: "Ivan Rebroff sings in Russian", followed by the title "Le Temps des Fleurs" and the subtitle "Bessarabyanka". The CBS logo (top left) and the mention "Série Gemini" (in red, right) are also present, attesting to a period edition under this label.

The sleeve features a design typical of musical productions from the second half of the 20th century, probably the 1970s, with a clean graphic layout and strong contrasts. The record is not visible in the photo; only the front sleeve is shown. The code 3860 is visible under the CBS logo, which identifies the pressing reference.

The sleeve's surface is matte, with some slight signs of wear visible on the edges, particularly on the bottom right and left side, with no major tears or apparent stains. The corners show typical crushing marks from old use, but the overall appearance remains visually coherent and legible.

The graphic design of the sleeve, centered on Ivan Rebroff's portrait, highlights the vintage aspect and the unique character of this edition. No superfluous decorative elements; the focus is on the artist and the typography, typical of international song records from this period.

The photograph was taken in a bright indoor environment, with stained glass windows in the background, but this does not affect the visibility of the sleeve's details.

Condition
Used item sold as is, untested. Sleeve shows signs of use, marked corners, and some visible creases, with no major tears. The record is not visible, so no guarantee on its condition.

Did you know? Ivan Rebroff, a German singer with an exceptional vocal range, popularized many Russian and international tunes in the 60s and 70s. His version of "Le Temps des Fleurs" is a French adaptation of the international hit "Those Were the Days", itself inspired by a Russian folk song.
