Description

This 45 rpm vinyl record features the original cover for "Believe in me" by Gilbert Montagné, with a large portrait of him on the front. The photograph shows the artist wearing a red and white jacket and reflective sunglasses, in a relaxed pose with his hands under his chin. The dominant colors of the cover are red, white, and shades of beige and brown in the background, reinforcing the pop aesthetic of the period.

The typography of "Gilbert Montagné" is handwritten in white on a red band, while the title "Believe in me" appears in bright yellow, in a stylized font, in the upper right. A label logo is visible in the lower left of the cover, confirming the 45 rpm (45 tours) format. There is a handwritten green signature on the artist's face, directly on the cover, which makes this copy unique.

The record is shown standing, with only the cover visible in the photo. The print shows a slight glossy effect on the surface, typical of vinyl jackets from the late 70s and early 80s. No other accessories or parts of the record are visible in this image.

The overall condition of the cover shows visible signs of wear: slight creases, marked corners, and handling marks, especially on the edges. These marks confirm prior use, common for old vinyl records.

Condition

Used item sold as is, with visible signs of wear on the cover (creases, marks, scuffed corners). A green handwritten signature is on the front. The record itself is not visible in the photo.
