Labyrinth Film Font

Does anyone know if this is an available font? It was used in the opening credits of the 1986 film Labyrinth. I'm not sure if maybe ILM custom made the titles or if they used an existing font.

Thank you for your time!

Thank you so much FONATICA! You are amazing!! The letters "m" and "n" don't have the curved parts but it is close enough for me. The font in the movie must be some sort of variant or custom work. Very grateful for your help as I never would have found it on my own.

Best regards,

Adam, "m" and "n" are alternates http://www.dafont.com/forum/read/160066/banished-game-font

You can also try http://www.dafont.com/cheboygan.font It has the letter "m".

Thank you Fonatica. That is interesting that it was used for the "Banished" game as well. Sadly, the link in the other post to www.fontshop.com is broken. It looks like they had a version called Chesterfield OT or OT PS with the character set displayed. It appears this may be a rare or hard to find version of the font. But that Cheboygan font at least has the letter "m" in the curved style as an alternate character. I found a website for the font author Alan Meeks and sent him an email to ask if he knows the history of the fonts alternate characters or what version they may be hidden in as alternates. I will see if he responds. He is 66 years old an may not have time to deal with the likes of me. Ha ha. Thanks again for all your help!

Labyrinth released in 1986 used predigital Chesterfield, published by Letraset in 1977 as contact lettering.
Letraset version included alts for _h_, _m_, _n_, and _s_.
They are included in the E&F alts.
