Soutache in dichromatic use – blue core letters with green ornamentation – for Balalaika. The accompanying sans serif is News Gothic Extra Condensed.

Recorded by Pierre and Vladimir Svetlanoff with the Sania Poustylnikoff Orchestra and released in the USA by Mercury Records. Shown above is the cover of the SRI 604 gatefold version (date unknown). A similar cover design with different colors was used for MG 20877/SR 60877 from 1964, see below.
