Gotham Black edited to make tri-line letters.

I agree. It's really frustrating when one attempts to Myfonts permalink to a font with many variations such as Linotype's Helvetica and the permalink produces pangrams.



Waukegan LDO is another free alternative.

Suggested font: Waukegan

Audio is El Greco, designed by G.G. Lange for Berthold in 1964

Berthold digitized El Greco http://www.myfonts.com/fonts/berthold/el-greco-pro/ but dropped the swash from _A_. However, Berthold kept the swash for the _A_ portion of the _AE_ ligature http://www.myfonts.com/fonts/berthold/el-greco-pro/regular/glyphs.html#glyphs/439008/142 This swash could be pasted on _A_ to recreate the pre-digital _A_

@jerseygirl Good find
Agree with Calibre Black. I find no differences from SAMPLEKOR in the image

Solanel Black is as close as I have found so far.
A fair match but not heavy enough.
Still looking.

Suggested font: Solanel Black


Sep 19, 2016 at 12:08  [reply]  Which's this font, please?

Columbia Serial, the version of Optima produced by Softmaker. Note the angular acute accent, which is not found in the versions of Optima by other foundries.
Note the width of the period is horizontally compressed to somewhere between 70 and 80 percent of its height. The uncompressed text matches of Columbia Serial Heavy

Suggested font: Columbia Serial Heavy

Sep 18, 2016 at 17:31  [reply]  what's this font?

Higher resolution image of this 1876 book cover

Embossed lettering not based directly on specific fonts.
The words _THE MOON_ are similar to an 1876 font called Lacrosse -- note the hooked terminals on _H_, _M_ and _N_ which resemble Lacrosse sport sticks. AFAIK no digital.


Sep 18, 2016 at 16:55  [reply]  What font is this please

Logo in the "handmade" style, either for a real company or as an art project.
A search did not uncover a matching font.
The _S_, without the spurs, is similar to the _S_ in any of the various fonts based on U.S. Interstate Highway signage.
A free version, Hit the Road, is available here at Dafont.
http://www.dafont.com/hit-the-road.font?text=SIBERIA
Paste on some spurs and you have a fair substitute

Make some adjustments to the letters, such as raising the midline in _B_, _E_ and _R_ and the substitute is closer to SIBERIA.


Sep 18, 2016 at 14:57  [reply]  I'm looking for this font.

Based on the style of _o_ I would call these soft blackletter letters a fraktur.
The Roman style _k_, the recognizable _x_ and the use of a short rather than long _s_ in the middle of a word suggests that it might be a modern design.
It would be helpful if you could mention where you found the letters.
Are they a logo?

Use the Bitstream version. The other versions are not an exact match.
