The cover for Radiohead’s 1997 album OK Computer uses Eurostile Bold Extended for the artist name (as with The Bends) and ITC Franklin Gothic Bold for the album title; the text on the “Lost Child” sign appears to be set in Selectric Univers (judging from its oddly narrow s). The back cover uses both regular and bold weights of Neuzeit S, while the copyright info and lyric booklet both use OCR-B.

Design by Stanley Donwood and Thom Yorke (credited as the White Chocolate Farm), with additional artwork by Matt Bale at Hubdesign and Mr. Barry (Kade) at The Whole Hog.
