Moondog & Moondog 2

I was struggling to find the typeface used for this album art, and was about to assume it to be one-off lettering when I stumbled onCoro Moonin Photo-Lettering's Ron Coro, but made for him. The name also indicates that it was developed specifically for this project. These are only guesses, but PLINC frequently supplied the type for Columbia in the 1960s–70s, including many sleeves by Coro and John Berg.

Type aside, Moondog (born Louis Thomas Hardin) is a fascinating story in his own right, and I advise getting to know him and his work. A documentary film about his life is currently in production.
