Aliased map font?

Nov 23, 2024 at 01:45

I found this map of the United States in 1860, its aliased and has two fonts i really need. heres some images.
I want to know the font present on the 2-letter state codes you can see on the map, and i want to know which font is used in the text on the right with the dates.
Edit: I ALSO need the font on the "Free states" and "Slave states" labels.

Someone with better eyesight than me could probably make a few guesses, but I think what you're
asking for is too small and indistinct for a definitive identification ... aside from "United States" which looks
like Palatino, but you didn't ask for that.

I got nowhere with the small print, sorry. No luck finding a better image, either.

Good luck

By the way, the other smaller text's font is VERY similar to Palatino, but its not perfect.

I never said it was. It is small, though.
