Tousan was the name used by Allen Toussaint early in his career. This album with instrumentals was released by RCA Records in 1958. The cover photography is by Nolan A. Marshall.
The typography combines Caslon No. 540 Italic with what looks like Condensed Title Gothic No. 11. The tall gothic caps used for “WILD” are from an unidentified typeface.
