Berlin Symphony Orchestra – Grieg Program album art

This album with compositions by Edvard Grieg was released by Royale Records in 1951. The recording is credited to the Berlin Symphony Orchestra conducted by Leopold Ludwig. According to Discogs, however, “[m]ost likely all artist credits are fake, as usual for Royale Records.”

What we can verify here are the typeface credits: the title is in Commercial Script. The smaller text at the bottom combines no less than three different sans serifs: there’s the Bold Condensed style of Erbar-Grotesk, caps from Vogue, and Futura Condensed.

In addition to the cover printed in green and red, there was also a variant in pink and blue.
