Polskie Kolędy: Polish Christmas Carols, recorded by theChór Parafialny Kościoła Matki Boskiej Pocieszenia” (Parish Chorus of the Church of Our Lady of Consolation) from Williamsburg, Brookly, New York, released by Stella Records (New Jersey, USA). Undated.

The cover is signed “di Lello”—this is probably Richard DiLello who is credited with other artwork for Stella Records. The big blackletter is Engravers Old English, with the alternate y available in ATF’s version. The ogonek is likely a custom addition. The slab serif caps stem from Ludlow’s Karnak, which can easily be confused with Memphis. The informal upright script is yet unidentified—it’s a bit similar to Brody or Filmotype faces like Hamlet or Jupiter.
