This undated album with polka music by Vic Latauska and His Orchestra was released on Colonial Records probably sometime in the mid-1960s. The swirling caps used for “POLKAS” are from Kismet. Designed by John F. Cumming and first released by the Boston Type Foundry in 1879, it was revived for phototypesetting around that time. The sans is Standard Bold, the export name of Akzidenz-Grotesk fett.
