Designed by Chicago artist Turtel Onli, who also published graphic novels, this 1974 album for two jazz greats – Joseph Jarman and Anthony Braxton – has a vibrant cover with hand lettering.

On the rest of the packaging, we see a number of typefaces. The label features Futura Bold, Franklin Gothic, a stamped condensed gothic, and two weights of Metro No. 2. The accompanying one-sheet has a lighter weight of Futura, Sans Serif (Monotype’s copy of Kabel), and an unidentified roman. Modernique is used for “Two Decades of jazz & blues”. The Delmark logo appears to be based on Venus Extended.
