When Photo-Lettering added Craig Mierop’s Ginger Snap to their library in 1969, it was an instant hit: this best-of compilation by Eric Burdon & The Animals is already the seventh in-use example from the year of its release documented on Fonts In Use.

Art director David Krieger specified the shaded C style, with the open letter bodies filled in red. The back of the sleeve feature a reversed black-and-white setting.
