Sep 19, 2015 at 22:51  [reply]  what the font?

@fonatica Good info.
I take from the dribbble page that this is Hand Lettering and not a font.
Could ask the lettering artist, Oskar Wettergren, if he has any more letters.

Edited:
Modified: The _S_ is scaled up _s_.
The _h_ is customized by clipping the leg.
As for _E_, parts seem to include lowercase _l_ overlaid with top stroke from _F_ or _T_ and modified and bottom stroke from _T_ with lhs clipped & modified.

For _AUTO CLUB ELEMENTS_ use Supreme, which is apparently derived from the BAUER skate logo

Identified font: Supreme

Deleted most of my previous post as perhaps being too complex for most readers.
@koeiekat Does your procedure maintain the height to width ratio of the letters? Or do they become wider?

I compared the glyphs of Long Tall Sally EEN with Edition.
LTS is Edition modified with a parallel stroke.
An interesting exercise is to modify Edition to make a passable imitation of _BANDITS_. This consists of filling in the counters by 50% without increasing the width and ... thickening the serifs and horizontal lines. Rest of original post deleted as perhaps being too complex for most readers.

Identified font: Broadway



Agree with koeiekat, Sanford is the match.
Here are the main glyphs from Sanford, a golden oldie from Silver Graphics in 1992,

Currently no legitimate way to acquire it

Not certain this lettering is a font.
Could be made from Bee Three with minor adjustments. To make the A invert _U_ and add a crossbar.

Suggested font: Bee Three

LTMaximilian now DS-Maximilian, was created by Gerda Delbanco in the 1990s.

Good quality clean digitization, but somewhat expensive.

Edited:
Designed by Rudolf Koch in 1917 for the Klingspor foundry, which sold it at Maximilian.
The blade engraving may have beens based on the original design rather than a digital revival.
There are several legitimate digital versions.
One by G. Helzel under the name Maximilian. Good quality clean digitization which is available for purchase only from his website, which is complex to navigate.
There is also LTMaximilian, now DS-Maximilian. See next post.
Another is by Stephen Miggas as Gothicus.
The digital preview of Gothicus at Myfonts does not show the German double s/tz that is in the font.
The quality of this digitization is rather poor.
There is also a digital Maximilian by Deiter Steffmann that, based on his stated practice of taking the digital outlines of obscure fonts created by other font-makers and adding characters, accents and sharing the results as a free font, I would recommend against using. BTW the quality of this digitization is also rather poor.

Suggested font: Gothicus

So your idea is that a font creator must give his work away and use goodwill to put food on the table
