This single, released in 1973 on the Theleme label, comes with a typographic sleeve that features two typefaces available from <a target="_self" class="entity-link" href="https://fontsinuse.com/foundry/124/letraset" data-entity-code-id="124" data-entity-code-type="Foundry">Letraset</a>. The song titles are in <a href="https://fontsinuse.com/typefaces/12494/quaint-desdemona"><strong>Desdemona Solid</strong></a>, a revival of a design that originated as Quaint at the <a target="_self" class="entity-link" href="https://fontsinuse.com/foundry/1371/dickinson" data-entity-code-id="1371" data-entity-code-type="Foundry">Dickinson</a> foundry in the 1880s, here used with inappropriate straight quotes. The band name is composed in <strong><a target="_self" class="entity-link" href="https://fontsinuse.com/typefaces/149696/gary" data-entity-code-id="149696" data-entity-code-type="TypeEntity">Gary</a></strong>. The latter appears to be a Letraset original issued in 1970, when Art Nouveau was <em>en vogue</em> again.</p>

<p>The Theleme logo uses caps from <a target="_self" class="entity-link" href="https://fontsinuse.com/typefaces/85525/frankonia" data-entity-code-id="85525" data-entity-code-type="TypeEntity">Frankonia</a>.</p>

French label <a target="_self" class="entity-link" href="https://fontsinuse.com/tags/27525/disques-festival" data-entity-code-id="27525" data-entity-code-type="Tag">Disques Festival</a> issued the 12″ record in 1978.</p>

<p>François Dupuich’s illustration obviously was made under the influence of <cite><a target="_self" class="entity-link" href="https://fontsinuse.com/tags/14882/saturday-night-fever" data-entity-code-id="14882" data-entity-code-type="Tag">Saturday Night Fever</a></cite>. The Art Nouveau letterforms are from a relatively rare typeface by <a target="_self" class="entity-link" href="https://fontsinuse.com/foundry/124/letraset" data-entity-code-id="124" data-entity-code-type="Foundry">Letraset</a>, the manufacturer of dry transfer lettering: the all-caps <strong><a target="_self" class="entity-link" href="https://fontsinuse.com/typefaces/149696/gary" data-entity-code-id="149696" data-entity-code-type="TypeEntity">Gary</a></strong> appears only in a few of their catalogs I’ve seen, with a 1970 date and no individual credits.</p>
