The 'M' and '1' have been replaced/modified. '2' and '0' feel like they were borrowed from Eurostile Bold Extended #2 or similar.

Suggested font: SF Distant Galaxy

Watford is a clone by notorious font pirate SouthernSoftware of Zarana from Compugraphic.
OPTI also did a clone called Zara

Correct. Zarana comes up so many times that it's become easier to simply point to digital clones Watford or OPTI-Zara as people usually need digital fonts to work with. I would recommend caution using any cloned fonts commercially as the companies responsible for digitizing them either never got permission from the original typeface creators or are now completely defunct - meaning you can no longer even obtain a license to their arguably unlicensed work. I haven't been able to identify the designer of Zarana to anything more specific than Compugraphic Corporation.

For 'Atacado' text. Looks like it's been manually condensed.

@dx7 Nice find there. Looks as if the slanted A here has a break in its crossbar similar to the Amdek Corp. logo from 1981.

Here's a few other samples I've seen but have yet to pinpoint exact dates for. Books, films, and TV are better to use as most will have a specific year of print/release/broadcast. A lot of loose print ads and posters do not contain enough information unless they are within a dated or copyrighted publication.

Reforma established in 1971 by the American Library Association. I cannot confirm whether the logo was used as early as 1971.

Overhoff Technology Corporation founded in 1972. I cannot confirm whether the logo was used as early as 1972.

Superior Coach Company were re-branded in the mid 1970's after being acquired by Sheller-Globe Corporation in 1969. I've seen samples of the re-branding allegedly from 1973/4 but cannot confirm these dates.

Stumbled upon this recently, STUPID FONT Series Vol.5 - 120000volt Oblique. This is likely the basis for the ENOGLOSSA text.

Suggested font: 120000volt Oblique


Jan 07, 2016 at 10:57  [reply]  Name of this or similar font?

Based on the 'A' and 'N' I'd say this could have started with Korataki. You'd need to do a lot of editing to achieve this result though.

Suggested font: Korataki

Jan 02, 2016 at 05:07  [reply]  BUENA VISTA LOGO FONT????

Surrounding text looks like Schadow Black (1938) by Georg Trump. Slight differences in the 'C' and punctuation digitally but fairly close. Not sure you'll find an exact match for the Buena Vista text but there might be something similar out there somewhere.

Suggested font: Schadow Black



With perspective adjustment and downward point added to the 'O'.

Suggested font: Matrix II Tall Semi
