Vinyl 45 rpm Tommy Nilsson No Way No How vintage 1981 picture sleeve
AFW - Antique France Worldwide
Description
This 45 rpm vinyl features the song "no way no how" performed by Tommy Nilsson. The cover, clearly visible in the photo, showcases a color portrait of the artist, created by Bill Buckner. The name "TOMMY NILSSON" appears in large blue letters at the top of the sleeve, while the song title, "no way no how," is inscribed in black cursive letters on the left. Several technical and distribution mentions are also visible on the front, including "AZ/1 804", "DIS 103", "P 1981", as well as the Distribution Discodis logo and the mention "Delove".
The jacket displays a typical early 80s style, with its soft-light photography, slightly faded colors, and characteristic typography of the period. The artist is photographed in a close-up shot, sporting curly blond hair and a black and white striped top. The overall presentation of the record evokes the pop aesthetic of the era, both understated and marked by the visual codes of musical productions of the decade.
The vinyl is housed in an illustrated cardboard sleeve, whose corners show some visible signs of wear: creases, marks, and slight stains, primarily on the upper left and lower right sections. Despite these signs of use, the image remains clear and all technical inscriptions (references, credits, logos) remain perfectly legible.
The bottom edge of the sleeve features the mention "Produced by Latin Paradise Music for Delove," confirming the original production and distribution. The Discodis logo and the reference number are also visible, important elements for the precise identification of this pressing.
Condition
Used item, sold as is. The sleeve shows several signs of wear, creases, and handling marks visible on the front. However, the inscriptions and photo remain legible and intact. The record itself is not visible in the photo; only the sleeve is described here.
