String Quintet in G Major played by The Dvořák String Quartet feat. František Pošta, Double Bass. Cover by Josef Kalousek, with art by Sandy Hoffman, 1967. The sprawling swash letters in the treetop are from Dave West’s Behemoth Italic.
The covers for this series of records with music composed by Antonín Dvořák and released by Crossroads Records in the 1960s were art directed by Sid Maurer and illustrated by Sandy Hoffman.
Kudos to Jive Time Records for scanning and sharing these great record covers!
Symphony No. 6 In D Major, by The Czech Philharmonic Orchestra, conducted by Karel Ančerl. Six lines of Hobo caps with tiny diacritical marks — note the háček neatly tucked between the legs of A. Hobo is also used for the “Romantic National” logo on the left.
