Original Goodies is a doo wop compilation put together by Diane Dadaian and Harry Ringler for Time Records and released as TIME 52082 in 1963.

The purely typographic cover was designed by Murray Stein and typeset at The Composing Room, Inc., making the most of Filmotype’s library. In addition to eight originals by the phototype pioneers from Illinois, including Quick for the title and Falcon for the artist names, there are three foundry typefaces which were adopted to Filmotype’s two-inch film strip format, too: Latin Wide, Cooper Black, and Microgramma Bold Extended. These are listed in Filmotype’s catalog as LW, COP6, and MM56.
