Custom for SONY.
You can get pretty close if you compress the height of Clarendon No 1 URW Medium to 80 percent:

Leg on _K_ and _R_ is similar to Monotype's Classic Roman.

Suggested font: Classic Roman


Nov 27, 2018 at 11:11  [reply]  UC Berkeley buildings font

Would have been custom designed by or for the architect in 1909 -- non-standard use of Roman Numerals, usually written as MCIX.
AFAIK, no matching digital font.
A few digital fonts, like Beaufort, have low contrast strokes and similar flared tiny serifs. It could be used to approximate this alphabet, but IT IS NOT A MATCH.

Suggested font: Beaufort

Rotate the _O_ 24 degrees right and _SOLO_ looks like this:



The _J_ in _JENNIE_ also looks edited.

Le Jeune is Commercial Type's public release of a version of the Didot that it designed for Vanity Fair.
See esp Le Jeune Deck for the closest to the font in your image.

Suggested font: Le Jeune


Nov 13, 2018 at 19:51  [reply]  Vanity Fair

Per font info on the Vanity Fair website, this is VF-Didot-3-Web-Bold and VF-Didot-3-Web-Bold-Italic.
For a substitute use any of several Didot's.

Identified font: Vanity Fair Didot

Looks like a version of Letter Gothic, except that the zero is narrower.

Suggested font: Letter Gothic

Close but not a 100% match.

Suggested font: Arial Monospaced

License Plate USA is a similar font based on North American car fonts, but is NOT AN EXACT MATCH.

Suggested font: License Plate USA


Nov 09, 2018 at 10:10  [reply]  What font is this? Please !

Agree that the letters seem to have originated with Full Slab.
Paste the macron on the top of _A_ to make a serif, and paste a serif at the lrhs of N and you get:



I used Full Slab Book weight, which is currently free at Myfonts.
You can get a closer match if you use a heavier weight of Full Slab and compress the width slightly.

Perhaps hand-lettered for the band.
Looks like a hybrid of the letters in runic/ancient Greek fonts and something like Brownie. A light weight of Brownie is available at https://www.1001fonts.com/brownie-font.html
The double strokes evoke the tone of Rennie Mackintosh/Arts and Crafts letters.

Suggested font: Brownie

Psi Hoe Pate said  
This is Farao Black

Farao Black

Farao Black is not the font because it does not include a Cyrillic alphabet.
However, the letters in the Rolling Stone headline and RS_Egyptian look like they are derived from Farao Black.
Compare them to these letters from Farao Black:


Nov 02, 2018 at 02:25  [reply]  Cyrillic wood title font help


Looks like a match. The character set is labelled:
RS_Египетский i.e. RS_Egyptian.
The "RS" is probably Rolling Stone.
So this seems to be a private font for Rolling Stone.
UPDATE:
However, there are a few differences between RS_Египетский shown in the link and the font actually used in the magazine.
Note the ball terminals upper right of Ka _к_, and upper left and right of Zhe _ж_.
