Help me find this Vintage font...

Oct 15, 2018 at 11:25

This font is used on lots of vintage elements from Shutterstock etc...

I can't find the name of it, does anyone know what it is?

Please note the indent at the bottom of the stem of the E where it meets the base.

That indent (that you can see also at the top of the N) is called an "ink trap". In the old times of newspaper printing, the ink could accumulate in corners and to avoid a blob the letters had those small indents. They look really ugly on computers, but it tells us that is an old font (or that mimics one).

I found it after a bit more searching... and it's free!
