Poster for the 1970 Czechoslovak release of Se mnou ne madam (original German title: Mit mir nicht, Madam!; English: Not With Me, Madam!), a 1969 DEFA film about mistaken identity, directed by Roland Oehme and Lothar Warneke and filmed in Yugoslavia.

Designer Zdeněk Ziegler somehow got his hands on Or, a multiline typefaces designed by André Chante and released in 1969 by Hollenstein in Paris. Ziegler used it for “MADAM”, in alternating glyph colors. Apparently he didn’t like the original A with the flat top, and made his own form, taking cues from a flipped V.

I don’t know whether the sans-serif inline caps are custom drawn or taken from a typeface. Neither Phosphor, Lux Antieke, or Drescher Grotesk is a match. The small print is in reversed Gill Sans.
