Description

This 45 rpm vinyl record features a picture sleeve with a photographic portrait of Enrico Macias, identifiable by the words "ENRICO MACIAS" in red letters on a black and white background, placed at the bottom right of the cover. The sleeve displays a graphic style typical of the 1960s, with a close-up photograph showing the artist smiling, headphones around his neck, and a plaid shirt visible. The "Pathé" logo and the mention "EMI" appear at the top left, attesting to the original record label.

On the right side of the sleeve, the song titles are clearly inscribed in white on a black background: "J’appelle le soleil," "Mon cœur d’attache," "La part du pauvre," and "J’en ai plein mon cœur des souvenirs." The reference "EG 901" is also visible at the top right, allowing for the identification of this specific pressing. The overall visual is characteristic of French popular music productions of the era, with a simple but striking layout.

The sleeve, in the classic square 45 rpm format, has a glossy finish and a slightly satin appearance under light. The visible edges show slight traces of wear consistent with a vintage item, with no major apparent degradation on the exposed side. No vinyl is visible in the photo, but the sleeve itself is well presented.

The graphic design, typography, and photography signed "Photo Pathé Marconi" at the bottom left attest to a meticulous production, characteristic of popular French records from the second half of the 20th century. The ensemble fits into a retro aesthetic, appreciated for decoration or music collection.
