Take Two: Uppercase capitals used in the cover of "Like a Prayer", a Madonna album released in 1989.

Question

Hello,

Although the Madonna logotype that features on the album cover was designed by the late Margo Chase, I doubt that the letters that spell the album title were algo designed by Margo Chase herself - they seem too classical and definitely run counter to her expressive, slightly gothic style.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks for your patience and help.

Answer 1

Possibly an early version of Ile de France...

Comments

Thank you so much. I really don't think there is a clear, unmistakable similarity between the two but thank you anyway!

Answer 2

Chase designed or modified a lot of type that wasn’t in her typical expressive style. I think this is another example of that. She may have started with Amerigo or Albertus.
