Little Richard’s Grooviest 17 Original Hits! is a compilation album released by Specialty Records in 1968. The jacket design by Burt Andersen comes in a number of color variants, three of which are shown here. The tightly spaced Cooper Black is livened up by tittles in another color. As the numerals in this typeface are non-ligning, the 7 had to be moved up to prevent a crash with the line below.
