1976.


From 1957, I believe. It’s the German version of a 1957 album. One of my prized possessions—an incredibly edgy typographic treatment for the 50s-60s. And I love Akzidenz Grotesk. In an envelope-style paper sleeve that I think is screenprinted. Photo by Shawn.


Yep.



Didn’t catch the year on this, but it was some time in the late 50s to late 60s (when all his records came out). Snapped this at the Dusty Groove Garage Sale this weekend, and had actually shot a cleaner copy of it at Randolph Street Antique Market (left) a couple weeks ago. Click to enlarge.

1977. Found this image on eBay—the wicker background is an excellent touch.


1971. Just Helvetica, but love how it’s used. Image via Epiclectic’s photostream.


According to inner sleeve: “Cover was done by David.”


Covers from 1977 to 1982 showing a rare consistent typographic branding.
