An early appearance of Dimensia, used with small cap and lowercase forms for an unicase (or uncial) look, on the cover of a live album recorded by Paddy Noonan and his Grand Band at the John Barleycorn in New York.
Anzeigen-Grotesk got a similar treatment. This typeface didn’t come with small caps. The unicase version is either custom or a phototype extension.
Noonan was an accordionist and a popular figure on the Irish-American entertainment scene. Born in Mallow, County Cork, the long-time resident of Garden City, New York, died in 2020 at the age of 83.
