Maurice Larcange – Paris for Lovers album art
Paris for Lovers is an album by French accordionist Maurice Larcange (1929–2007), released in the Phase 4 Stereo series by London Records in the United States and by Decca Records in the United Kingdom. For the cover, New York-based studio Farmlett, Barsanti & Associates filled the big numeral 4 with a smorgasbord of local stereotypes; from the tricolore and a pastiche of Toulouse-Lautrec’s Jane Avril poster to a bottle of Dubonnet and the inevitable Eiffel Tower.
Judging from details like the short and narrow i and the v with ascending swash, the title typeface is Photo-Lettering’s Caruso Roxy (1962) – and not its close follower Holiday: in the Lettergraphics face, the i is taller and wider and there’s no alternate form for v, see this glyph set.
