Sleeve for the Italian release of “Nobody Does It Better” (b/w “After the Storm”), from the original soundtrack to Agente 007 – La Spia Che Mi Amava, that is The Spy Who Loved Me. The power ballad became Carly Simon’s longest-charting hit. Its title was later used for her greatest hits compilation, The Very Best of Carly Simon: Nobody Does It Better.

The typography brings together two Letraset originals: Collis Clements’ Roco (1973) and Dean Morris’s Quicksilver (1976). (Someone forgot to knock out the counter in S.) Judging from the unruly baseline, the small type in Helvetica was applied with rubdown type, too.
