French picture sleeve for the re-recorded version of “Strutter” as included on Kiss’s 1978 greatest hits album Double Platinum.

Easily my favorite use of Gemma so far. The uncredited cover designer made the heartline yellow and the outer lines red (cf. this Faces single), and then filled the gap with orange. Now the letterforms look as if they were made from white-hot iron.
