The cover shows the band name in purple **Smoke** , featuring a custom drawn castellated **T** that alludes to a rook piece.\n\nWikipedia has the following information about the band:\n\n> The Checkmates, Ltd. were an American R&B group from Fort Wayne, Indiana. The group, discovered by Nancy Wilson, was named such because the group included both black and white members, and their various skin tones evoked a chessboard; their one major hit was 1969’s “Black Pearl”, produced by Phil Spector.\n\nThe album title is in pink and red caps from **Helvetica Black**.\n\n[More info on Discogs]\n\n\n\nThis post was originally published at Fonts In Use\n\n* * *",
