Jean Ferrat Ma France vintage 45 rpm vinyl record illustrated sleeve Barclay

AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description

This 45-rpm vinyl record is dedicated to Jean Ferrat, an emblematic figure of French chanson, and features a visually striking cover. On the front, the sleeve displays a black and white portrait of the singer, placed in front of a stylized illustration of the map of France, adorned with red and blue stripes evoking the national flag. The titles listed on the cover are: "ma france", "ariane", "l'idole à papa" and "un jour futur", all printed in the top left in a modern typography characteristic of the 1970s.

The artist's name, "jean ferrat", appears at the bottom left in thick black letters, while the Barclay logo, a renowned record label, is visible at the bottom right. The overall design is typical of vintage French record sleeves, with a clean graphic style and a strong contrast between the colored elements and the off-white background.

The sleeve shows some visible signs of wear: slight creases and marks on the edges, as well as a general patina consistent with a record of its era. No major tears or pronounced stains are observable on the front. The visual remains legible and attractive, making it a decorative object as much as a musical medium.

The item is photographed resting on a wooden cabinet, with an antique bookcase in the background, highlighting the retro character of the object. The spine and back are not visible in this image; only the front of the sleeve is described here.

This record has not been tested, so the condition of the vinyl inside is not guaranteed. It is primarily a second-hand item, sold as is, ideal for vintage record enthusiasts or for authentic musical-themed decor.
