What’s strange though, is that in your first sample, the E in CINÉMA isn’t rounded like in REX and the text below it. The rounded E looks more like it belongs in Exo 2.0 or thereabouts.

Sorry, but so little detail is visible in your sample as to make it pretty much useless to font matching software programs. It's a semi-slab typeface, at least, but that's not a lot to go on. Do you know the name of the restaurant? Better images may be available elsewhere on the 'net.

I agree with Kevin, I've unwrapped the perspective, and it looks wrong (inverse perspective than it should be): Even if you correct for the scaling: So somebody created it already as-is, with false perspective. That would suggest lettering rather than type.

FYI, I have identified the script font which I determined to be "Edwardian Script." Thanks for the help!

I can save you the work (actually, Luc Devroye did the heavy lifting). Here is his compilation of font collections and their font names/aliases. And he has a PDF of font name equivalents/license holders for one of Softmaker's collections (see attached, starting on page 12). SM-FONTS.PDF

Thanks a lot MissNobody !!

You're absolutely right, @Kevin Thompson! Only, she must have messed around with it somehow to give it that bubbly/wavy look. Thank you so much for your expert support!

Thank you very much, that's exactly it !

Hi Thank you so much for your help. As you say, I think it's Euclid Flex, but with Euclid Circular B for the G and the ampersand. Thank you so much for looking into this.

GEORGIA EZRA appears to be set in Apollo Regular.

Watchman is a digital revival of Vogue (Farmer, c. 1896). Called Hogarth by Stephenson Blake. See sample here (Vogue) and here (Hogarth).

I normally use a MacBook Pro M1 with a 15” retina screen, but when I’m away from it, an iPhone 13 Pro. I use glasses/contacts too, since I was 8. 😉👍

THANK YOU!!!

Can't find anything. I would try what Kevin suggested. Unless Marcos Buccini is already the author you've contacted. I've tried a different approach, searching for a Brazilian type designer, that has a similar style. I only found Eduardo Recife. Seems like he enjoys similar "Misprinted Type" style. If it's not Marcos Buccini or Eduardo Recife, it might be a good idea to post any information, from the book, you have. Like original author you've contacted, year when the font was created, or basically any information that is not shown on the picture you posted.

Thank you so much for the help Ralf!

Don’t mention it. If you like the overall style, you could always go inspiration shopping for “art nouveau” typefaces. The elegant, dynamic, organic flow inspired by forms found in nature is very typical for the style. Things being hand made as well, ironically. I see why you were inclined to investigate the specimen in the first place.

Unbelievable ..... I think you are spot on. Thanks for your help. Very much appreciated

Cheers for that. Certainly the closest I seen so far. Though you are right, The R dosen't quite match and it might be a little too wide but, as I say, not perfect but best match so far.

You are right, thanks a lot!!!

Fantastic - thank you both for your efforts!

Fantastic ! That was exactly it. It fits perfectly over my template (except for the new slightly improved kerning, of course) (… which doesn't make that design any nicer). And just when I was beginning to accept defeat, too. Thank you very much, Kevin ! P.S. : Unfortunately, I could only mark one answer as the solution (and Bjørn was first), but yours is certainly as deserving as his.

I suspect all of it is hand-lettered, but Little Micro Sans Bold could be artificially compressed to get you close.

COLLECTION is too small and doesn't contain enough distinctive letters (e.g., S, G, M) to definitively pin down, but Brandon Text comes close, as does Noir Standard.
