Perhaps because Mode was a product by American Wood Type Mfg. Co. designed to compete with Futura.
I asked for suggestions because the some of letters _randeur_ are rather different than Futura.

Helpful. Close _C_ etc.
Are there ny suggestions for the lower case, as shown in the Mode Cond. word _Grandeur_ at http://www.woodtyperesearch.com/catalog-no-36/

For _MOUNT GAY RUM_, One of the heavier and narrower versions of Copperplate Gothic, edited, mainly by clipping serifs.
For _BARBADOS_ regular width.

Carattere suggerito: Copperplate Gothic



Great to have a name, some numbers and the info that there was a lowercase.
A quick search reveals that Mode is also presented, in Medium, Condensed, Bold, and Extra Bold Condensed, at pages 22–24 of the AWT 1958–59 Catalog from American Wood Type Mfg. Co. -- which I have not seen.
Mode is a fascinating hybrid of the vibes of 19th century grotesque and Futura.

A quick rendition as a font. Hoping to find some matching numbers.
Don



Edited:

Looks like the source of the _U.S. CENTRIC..._ line.
Trivial differences such as the notch where the leg on _R_ meets the vertical stroke perhaps a result of redrawing the letters for a map plate.
Little or no optical correction to narrow the thickness of the horizontal strokes compared to the vertical ones. A trait of 19th century grotesque designs that is shared by Futura
I wonder if anyone done a digital version of this particular woodtype.

Sports logos are generally custom designs.
This one uses a _C_ and _S_ that look somewhat similar to how Bauhaus would look if it was sloped.

Carattere suggerito: Bauhaus

Gingery projection patented in 1944.
At least four different letter designs in this information panel.
Could perhaps be lithography rather than type as such.
Similar fonts for the smaller size letters include Intertype Vogue, not digitized.

If nobody finds it, Squara -- "designed to be manipulated" -- might serve as a basis for recreating it.
Don

Carattere suggerito: Squarea

29/09/2015 alle 13:26  [risposta]  Font Name of the Pit Bull?

Looks like a modification of Deutsche Scrift, a blackletter by Rudolf Koch.
Several digital versions including Cabazon
Don

Carattere suggerito: Cabazon

Could perhaps be custom lettering derived from some version of Copperplate Gothic.
The one with the closest _C_ is Copper Penny.
