Note(s):

Ten different sleeves. The chronological order could be:
1) green version with, on the back, some recommendations for use that the following versions did not to have;
It should be noted that this sleeve is the only one to have the exact reference ‘7 MOE 2031’ printed on both sides, the others only have the ‘7’ on the round label of the record;
2) versions with a ‘n° 4’ printed on the front (sleeves in green, yellow and turquoise), because indicating a number was obviously only useful when there were not many Yves Montand 45 RPM. It should be noted that the signature ‘G. Justh’ on the front is positioned differently on the green sleeve;
3) green and turquoise versions without the ‘n° 4’;
4) green version indicating on the back ‘Fabriqué en France’ instead of ‘Made in France’;
5) version with the picture of the caravan without the pink banner, because there is the old Odéon logo on the back and a presentation of records of which the last date from 1959;
6) version with the picture of the caravan and the pink banner, because there is the more modern Odéon logo on the back and a presentation of records of which the last date from 1959;
7) version with the picture of the caravan, the pink banner and another more modern Odéon logo on the back, because the last records presented date from 1960-1961.

Track B2 also issued in 1955 on a 2-track 45 RPM (7 inch), with the song Le Doux caboulot (F. Carco/J. Larmanjat), record n° 7MO 1033.
