Vinyl 45 RPM Biblical Songs 1 Lumen A.M. Cocagnac vintage religious

AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description

This 45 rpm vinyl record features an illustrated cover predominantly in blue, white, and black, typical of religious productions from the mid-20th century. The visible side displays the title "CHANSONS BIBLIQUES - 1" (BIBLICAL SONGS - 1), accompanied by the author's name "A.M. Cocagnac O.P." and the publishing house "LUMEN." The stylized illustration shows a silhouette playing a guitar in front of a structure resembling a fortified city, in harmony with the spiritual and biblical content of the record. Several song titles are printed in the upper right ("Jérusalem si belle entre tes tours," "Si Dieu ne nous aimait pas," "Abraham," "St Paul," "L’aveugle né"). In the upper left is the mention "BIBLE ET GUITARE" (BIBLE AND GUITAR) and a discreet handwritten annotation. The simple and clean graphics are consistent with the religious aesthetics of the 60s-70s.

The soft cardboard cover shows visible signs of wear: scuff marks, blunted corners, small scratches, and slight stains, particularly on the lighter areas. There are also some circular marks, likely due to the record's contact with the sleeve over time. The back is not visible in the photo. The colors remain vibrant despite the apparent age, giving the item an authentic vintage charm. No precise date indication is legible on the visible side, but the graphic style and typography suggest an edition likely from the 1960s or 1970s.

The front view does not allow for verification of the record's condition itself, nor for reading the information on the vinyl's central label. However, the sleeve mentions the reference "L.D. 1 – 118" in the lower right. The item is typical of educational or liturgical vinyl records produced for parishes or catechetical activities. The visual is appealing with its naive and graphic illustration, reflecting the spirit of religious recordings intended for youth and families.

Did you know? Vinyl records produced by the Lumen label in the 60s-70s were often used in religious education and catechesis in France. A.M. Cocagnac, a Dominican, greatly contributed to the spread of modern biblical song through his many recordings for children and adults.
