AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description

This 45 rpm vinyl record features a picture sleeve with a color photograph of a young brunette girl, dressed in a red top, standing in a wheat field. The title "Maman..." is written in red handwriting in the upper left part of the sleeve, while the artist's name, Lina Margy, appears in black capital letters on the right. The CBS logo is visible at the top right, with the mention "EP 5683" just below, indicating the pressing reference. The overall aesthetic, both in terms of photography and typography, evokes a style typical of the 1960s, although it is not explicitly dated on the visible side. The record itself is not visible; only the front cover is shown.

The cover has a matte, slightly satin finish, with well-preserved colors: the blue of the sky in the background and the golden hues of the field contrast with the vivid red of the clothing. No major defects appear on the visible side, apart from slight wear marks on the corners, consistent with a used item from that era. The central photograph is eye-catching due to its simple and warm composition, typical of popular record sleeves from the mid-20th century.

The inscription "CBS" in a square, accompanied by the label's characteristic graphic logo, certifies an original French or European pressing from the CBS label. The code "EP 5683" allows discophiles to precisely identify this edition. The mention "45 tours" (from the keywords) corresponds to a classic single or EP format for this type of vinyl record.

The sleeve shows no date or other information on the front. Only the visual elements mentioned are identifiable: color photograph, artist's name, title, and label. No other graphic or decorative details are observable on this side.

Condition

Used item, sold as is. Some discreet signs of wear are visible on the corners of the sleeve. The colors remain vibrant and the print is clear. The record is not visible and therefore could not be examined.

Did you know? The CBS label (Columbia Broadcasting System) was one of the main record publishers in France and Europe from the 1960s onwards, releasing many French-speaking and international artists. EP (Extended Play) references allowed several tracks to be grouped on the same 45 rpm record, a very popular format during this period due to its practicality and affordability.
