AFW - Antique France Worldwide
Description
This 45-rpm vinyl record features a colorful illustrated sleeve, characteristic of 1960s French editions. The front cover showcases an artistic photograph of a woman posing with a guitar, wearing a red hat, against a faded blue background. The main title, "Quand un air vous possède," is printed in bright yellow at the top right, with "Orchestre dir. : Claude Vasori" in smaller letters. The title "Leihla Twist" appears in yellow, accompanied by "Orchestre Guy Christian". The label name, "Panorama," is visible at the bottom left in a white handwritten typeface.
The sleeve has a glossy finish, typical of pressings from that era, with some light reflections visible on the surface. No tears, major creases, or apparent stains are visible on the illustrated side. The overall look is decidedly vintage, both in terms of layout and photographic aesthetics, evoking the popular musical world of the early 1960s. The inscription "MH 142" at the top right indicates the record's reference number.
This 45-rpm vinyl is a classic format, highly sought after for twist and yéyé music from that period. The graphic composition highlights the musician, reinforcing the sleeve's visual identity, while the color palette (blue, red, yellow, and white) adds a distinctive retro touch.
The record presented is the "Leihla Twist / Quand un air vous possède" edition, with mention of the respective orchestras. The jacket shows good card integrity and a clear print, with no major flaws observable in the provided photo.
The visible side shows no handwritten annotations, stickers, or additional markings. Only the front of the sleeve is shown; the back, spine, and interior are not visible.

Used item, sold as is. Sleeve in good apparent condition on the front, with some light reflections. Record untested (vinyl condition not visible in the photo).
