About this record
The runout matrix on this 1979 French 7-inch reads either 11.032 A or 11 032 B, stamped by MPO pressing plant and distributed through both Le Petit Ménestrel and Disques Adès under catalogue 11.032. Dominique Poulain's four-track Candy-Candy EP sits in a narrow price band: Mint copies fetch 7.22 USD while Good+ drops to 1.90 USD, making condition the decisive factor.
Only 5 copies currently list for sale, against 166 in collector hands and 13 active want-list entries.
What drives its value
This 1979 French children's chanson EP commands 7.22 USD in Mint condition, declining to 6.46 USD (NM), 4.94 USD (VG+), and 3.42 USD (VG). The lowest active asking price sits at 2.65 USD across 5 available copies.
Demand remains modest: 166 collectors own it versus 13 seeking one, a 12-to-1 have-to-want ratio that reflects its niche appeal as a Stage & Screen novelty rather than a sought reissue. The MPO pressing plant attribution and dual-label release (Le Petit Ménestrel / Disques Adès) mark this as an original 1979 French market pressing, not a later reissue, which anchors its modest but stable valuation among collectors of French children's records.
How to appraise this pressing
Confirm this pressing by the catalogue number 11.032 on the label and sleeve. Examine the dead-wax runout: Side A reads 11.032 A or MPO ADES SL/ 11032A, while Side B reads 11 032 B or MPO ADES SL / 11032 B.
The MPO plant code appears in both runout variants and confirms French manufacture. The 7-inch, 45 RPM stereo format and four-track layout match the EP specification.
No barcode is present on original 1979 stock. Grade by vinyl surface: Mint (7.22 USD) shows no play wear; NM (6.46 USD) exhibits only light handling marks; VG+ (4.94 USD) displays light surface noise and minor scuffs; VG (3.42 USD) shows moderate wear and audible surface noise.
Check the label for ink fade or printing irregularities common to MPO pressings of this era.

How much is a VG+ copy worth?
A VG+ graded copy is valued at 4.94 USD according to the price guide. This represents the mid-range valuation; Mint copies reach 7.22 USD while VG copies drop to 3.42 USD, so condition shifts the value by several dollars across the playable spectrum.
Who pressed this record and where?
MPO (Manufacture de Produits Optiques) pressed this 1979 release for the French market. The plant code appears in the runout as MPO ADES SL on both sides, confirming MPO's role as the manufacturing facility rather than a later reissue plant.
What is the lowest price currently listed?
The lowest asking price across 5 available copies is 2.65 USD. This undercuts even the Good+ grade estimate of 1.90 USD, suggesting either a heavily played copy or a seller clearing inventory below market guide.
How many collectors own this record versus want it?
