AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description

This 45 RPM vinyl record features the iconic cover of the single "POUR TOI ARMENIE", recognizable by its solid blue background with the title in large orange letters on the front. The cover displays numerous names of artists from the French pop and chanson scene, printed in white, which attests to a large-scale artistic collaboration. The characters are clear and legible, giving the whole a graphic appearance typical of the late 1980s.

The visible side of the cover highlights an impressive list of singers and personalities, including Adamo, Charles Aznavour, Jane Birkin, Johnny Hallyday, Vanessa Paradis, Eddy Mitchell, Serge Lama, Mireille Mathieu, Florent Pagny, Laurent Voulzy, and many others, reflecting the scale of the charity project. The design is understated, without illustrations or photos, focusing on typography and the legibility of the names.

The cover shows a smooth surface with a slight reflection, typical of cardboard or glossy paper prints from that period. No major defects are visible on the front, apart from a few light creases and signs of wear consistent with a used vinyl record. The top and side edges are clean in the visible area, and the lower left corner appears slightly blunted.

The deep blue color of the cover, combined with the orange of the title, creates a strong visual contrast, immediately recognizable to fans of 80s French variety records. No label, logo, or catalog reference is visible on the photographed side. The vinyl record is not visible in the photo; only the cover is presented.

The typography and arrangement of the names evoke a collective project, typical of charity records produced at that time. The graphic style and the artists cited allow this record to be attributed to the late 1980s, a period marked by large gatherings of artists for humanitarian actions.
