Published by Gemini G.E.L.

It's likely a font was not used for this piece, but the lettering is clearly derived from theMICRnumerals. In the mid 1960s and early 1970s, several typefaces appeared that extend this aesthetic to alphabetic characters, incl. Moore Computer, Gemini Computer, Westminster, Orbit-B, Data 70.
