Charles Aznavour Barclay 45 RPM vinyl record, vintage 70s picture sleeve

AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description
This 45 rpm vinyl record honors Charles Aznavour, an emblematic figure of French chanson, released under the Barclay label. The cover, visible in the photo, shows a portrait of the artist standing in a dark suit next to an antique column, against a coastal landscape bathed in natural light. The title "CHARLES AZNAVOUR" appears in large golden letters, followed by the list of the four tracks on the record: "QUAND ET PUIS POURQUOI", "S’IL Y AVAIT UNE AUTRE TOI", "MARIE L’ORPHELINE", and "COMME L’EAU LE FEU LE VENT".

The jacket features an aesthetic characteristic of the 1970s, identifiable by its typography, photographic style, and natural color palette, dominated by beige, sky blue, and brown tones. The Barclay label logo, in blue, is distinctly visible in the lower left corner. The reference number "71 363" is visible in the upper right, confirming the edition.

The overall condition of the cover, as seen in the photo, shows some slight signs of wear on the edges, typical of a vintage vinyl, with no tears or major apparent flaws on the front. The image remains clear, and the inscriptions perfectly legible. No major defects are to be reported on the visible surface.

This 45T record, also known as a single or EP, is a standard vinyl format of the period, highly appreciated for the dissemination of hit titles. The photo cover, typical of the era, offers a strong visual, both understated and evocative of Aznavour's world. This type of audio support is sought after for its analog rendering and its authentic retro appearance.

The visible side of the record clearly identifies the artist, the songs included, the Barclay label, and the graphic style of the edition, without extrapolating on the content of the back or the condition of the record itself, which is not visible here.

Condition
Used item sold as is, with visible signs of wear on the cover (see photo). The front remains in good condition for a vintage vinyl, with no major apparent defects.
