German sleeve for a single by The Mamas & The Papas, with the text arranged on the inner sides of two wings of a window, revealing the band portrait with stacked faces in the center. The tripartite layout is unusual and results in narrow columns with one word per line. Technically, the wings are too wide, of course, and would overlap when closed. The typeface is Windsor Elongated, the narrowest member of the Windsor series that originated at the Stephenson Blake foundry in England in the 1900s.
