Closest I can find to the lowercase.
No attempt to match the _H_.

Carattere suggerito: Yana



This charming specimen of the sign-painters art in the Edwardian era is based on narrow lightface Roman letters with some Tuscan touches for the terminals on _S_ and _C_ and some flourishes.
No single digital font has all of the features in the sign nut I can suggest some fonts with some similar letters, particularly for the _S_ and the top of the _C_

Thanks.
Helzel's pdf has served for many years as my encyclopedia of blackletter fonts. I highly recommended it to anyone checking such fonts. Does not have every font in the category, but there is no serious competitor.

Corrected to include links.
This is Gotenburg halbfett, designed by Friedric Heinricsen and published by Stempel in 1935.
A clean version is sold by Gerhard Helzel, Hamburg
People who have purchased with him were satisfied with the process.

Thanks I'll try that with my next MyFonts link
Looking at _W_ and _H_, I agree Sackers might be closer.

The closest match I can fined for this engraved roundhand is Shelley Andante Script.

@koeiekat
Just saw your last post.
I agree about the problems of making Epic Shaded work in digital format. Perhaps a lot of ligatures?
Sooner or later the OPTI-Castcraft issue will have its day in court and hopefully life will be simpler for people -- like myself -- who believe that some of their original digital fonts are pretty well made and worthy of use.
The copyright/design patent issues we discuss show why IP law firms are rich and font designers are not
Have you ever visited the WIPO (World Intellectual Property Organization) building in Geneva. I have; it's a real palace for the legal beagles
BTW your report of the Bitstream story agrees with my own notes. In any case the fonts were often better made than the Linotype versions.
Cheers
Don
