Lovely use of Eightway, designed by Milton Glaser, for an album, also designed by Milton Glaser. The design is very much in keeping with the style that Milton started to employ in the 1970s—his own twist on Pop Art.

More information on the album itself can be found on Discogs.

  1. Love it! This design would jump right out of the record bin. I happened to be looking at this scarf the other day, which I bet was also from the 1970s, when pastel pattern mixing was allowed.

  2. Amazing scarf! Great reference too.

    Looks like it’s a tad more recent but channels the 70s for sure, as the description of it here states: “…Jan Bajtlik pays homage to the Polish School of Posters from the 1950s to 1970s.”
