Heaven/Earth is a 1969 album from pop vocal group The Free Design.

The cover features the band name and album title set in Caslon No. 471 with its italic swash glyphs for the capitals, and roman for the lowercase. The album included a gatefold cover, with the heading and drop caps from another Caslon – probably (a version of) ATF’s Caslon Bold, of which the larger sizes were copied as Caslon 3.
