    German sleeve for Grace Jones’s single “Do or Die”, released in 1978, promoting her album Fame. The typography combines Neil Bold (Wayne Stettler, 1966) and Penny Farthing (Bob Newman, 1974), the latter featuring its nested MM ligature and the hallmark Q with the bar to the left (see glyph set). Both faces were available from Letraset at the time.
