  1. “pierre henry” appears to be Churchward Design 70 (the demi-bold weight), with the exception of an overhanging ‘r’. Perhaps a modification.

  2. Here’s the full glyph set of François Lasgi’s Puff Wind III as shown in a Mecanorma catalog from 1974, incl. alternates for A, E, H, M. If there ever were Puff Wind I and II, these might have been solid and outlined versions without shadow which were not deemed worthy of inclusion. The only other Mecanorma face with a Roman numerals suffix was Roberta III.

  3. I’ve been compiling a list on Discogs of all of the record covers I’ve found that use Puff Wind, you can find it here.
    ​​​​​​​And if there are any I’m missing that you know about, let me know!
