Apr 24, 2017 at 11:19  [reply]  Font for Metformin please~

Looks like the custom wordmark for the blood sugar lowering drug with this tradename.
This type of _i_ is found in Trebuchet, The Mix, Yalta Sans, Corpid, Greta Sans, Vialog and various other fonts.
Update: p.s. none of these fonts is a match for the rest of the letters.

Suggested font: Trebuchet

Apr 22, 2017 at 13:18  [reply]  PARAMORE AFTER LAUGHTER FONT

Unless Paramore is using a font made especially for its use, it is unlikely that there is a matching font with this isomorphic 3d treatment.
Here is explantion of how the effect was probably created.
Start with some narrow letters.
Slope them leftwards.
Rotate the letters rightwards until the vertical strokes are again vertical.
Like so -- ignore the typo of _N_ for _R_; its not worth redoing the image:

I did not find a font that is an exact match to the original upright letters.
Perhaps somebody has a suggestion?
Similar fonts include:

Block Gothic RR Medium Extra Condensed
Craft Gothic Condensed
Caracoltv

but none has the _M_ with a vertex that does not drop to the baseline.

Clarendon. Vintage TV suggests pre-digital, but this is deceptive as the choice of a recent digital Bookman for _hooptie_ [see next post] implies that this is more recent artwork.
Link is to Bitstream digital version because MyFonts automatically places the _fi_ ligature for the Linotype, Adobe and URW versions. Without the ligature they are also a match.

Apr 20, 2017 at 21:06  [reply]  MARDUK band font ?

AFAIK these distressed letters are not a font as such.
They are derived from alternate letters in Weiß-Gotisch, produced by Emil Rudolf Weiß for Bauersche Gießerei in 1936. There is a digital revival by CybaPee

Suggested font: Weiß-Gotisch


Apr 20, 2017 at 19:06  [reply]  Gas Monkey Font

The narrow, heavy, boxy sans letters of _GASMONKEY_ may have been derived directly or indirectly from lettering samples in a 1941 Speedball® Lettering Pen instructional booklet.

This was the inspiration for Handmade Gothic JNL.
Some letters are quite similar: particularly _G_, _A_, _K_ and _E_ [when turned upside down].

Suggested font: Handmade Gothic

Perhaps a proprietary sports font?
Secca Art Bold is perhaps the closest font available for use by the public.

Apr 16, 2017 at 18:04  [reply]  Font

Perhaps custom for the Château?
Some similarity to Castle Bold. which is NOT THE FONT. Imagine Castle Bold made slightly wider, with flare serifs [similar to Optima and others] and some minor edits such as the stem/serif added to a thickened rhs stroke of _U_.
p.s. The French word _Château_ has the same meaning as the English word _Castle_. Coincidence, or a deliberate choce of a base font by the custom font-maker?

Suggested font: Castle Bold

Detroit 11 Bevel One has a similar, but not identical, faceted/prismatic treatment of the letters, but is too thick and wide.

Suggested font: Detroit 11 Bevel One



ITC Pioneer No. 2 designed by Tom Carnase for ITC in 1970.
The book title uses the phototype era original and slopes the font slightly, does some minor horizontal compression, vertical stretching of _E_ and _A_, and drops the rhs leg of _M_, _R_ and _A_ below the baseline.
The digital version is the same as the phototype era original.

Compare to Ambroise Firmin Demi with width compressed to 36%



This is closer, but still lacks the tone of the letters in_SHOOTERS_
