    Crafting Type Melbourne

    Ralf Herrmann posted an event in Typography Events

    until
    Crafting Type is an intense 3–day workshop where absolute beginners learn how to design typefaces and intermediate type designers boost their skills. We run it around the world at cities large and small to bring you a solid start in type design. You may not be considering a career as a type designer. Many people we meet at our workshops have already established great careers as web designers, graphic designers, artists, architects, or illustrators. Sometimes we see repeat customers, who travel in from another city to attend the same workshop a second time — with no intention of becoming a professional type designer, ever. http://craftingtype.com

    Interesting, thanks.

    Oh cool thank you, that's what I was looking for. Any record of a Copperplate Gothic variation that includes the median spur ?
  9. Riccardo Sartori
    The first ones, without the median spur, are variations of Copperplate Gothic.

    Hello, I'm looking for 3 variations of the same font that were used for the SEGA CD logo, on some Monster Energy cans, in Warhammer 40K (Darktide) and elsewhere, but I couldn't tell where exactly. They seem to be pretty common fonts, and I'd like to use them, but I can't find them anywhere online. Here are some pictures of the fonts I'm talking about: https://imgur.com/b3ijApO https://imgur.com/vSUwGkq https://imgur.com/tQfTDuB Can anyone tell me what font it is?

    A little more research indicates that it is indeed ITC Serif Gothic, but that many of the alternate characters included in the original typeface were never digitized and included in any of the digital font versions (see right hand section of the image for the tilted "e").

    yes that is possible - I guess its also possible that the whole thing was created as a graphic

    I think it's most likely hand modified (rotated) to get that effect in the logo 🙂

    Yes that ITC Serif Gothic is very close but the lower case e is different and my client likes that e in the Mariners logo - thanks for the reply, much appreciated

    Reminds me of a modified ITC Serif Gothic Black https://www.myfonts.com/products/std-black-serif-gothic-369796

    Perhaps something like this: http://www.crazydiamond.co.uk/fonts/17c.html

    I think some version of Federal is the right choice, but I suspect the dimensional and engraved aspects are custom

    Ok, here is something I did not know which is a bit shameful because I should have known this: https://www.dictionary.com/e/theletteru/#:~:text=First%2C in the 1500s%2C Italian,it in his print shop.

    Trying to identify the font used in the original Seattle Mariners logo from 1977 to 1979 - realizing that the trident M was a graphic creation but want to know what the font is for the other letters in the words Seattle and Mariners
  23. mshiremanNK
    I'm trying to identify this font, used for the "EXTRA" header on a mock newspaper used for a wedding 50 years ago so that I can match the original as closely as possible. Any suggestions? I can find a lot of ultra-wide sans serif faces, but very few of them have the contrasting stroke widths evident in the X and A glyphs...
  24. Måns Berg
    Hello, I have failed to identify the font used on the cover of the Swedish novel Malma station by Alex Schulman. My best guess is URW Geometric, but the oblique style seems to have an M where the midpoint touches the baseline – unlike the upright style. It might of course be two different typefaces, though that would surprise me. Do you have any idea? Thanks in advace!

    Hi I couldn't find the exact same fancy swishes/glyphs (there are some when I hover over the letter in InDesign) but Bulgattie font is pretty close. https://en.maisfontes.com/bulgattie.font Obviously a long time after you needed the font but hope this helps in the future!

    The most similar I can find is GrotRough.

    Yeah, that sucks. Perhaps you can try to vectorize it or make it into a font yourself. The best image I can find is this (numbers and symbols are cut off though).

    Thanks MissNobody, Bookseller Bk Reduced actually looks like one of the closest I've seen. I don't know if anyone is interested but, in the meantime, I have identified the font of my image. It is ROMAN 4L, a typeface used in the old mechanical engraving. I can usually find Trutype copies for my work but this one looks like it hasn't been digitized. ☹️
