Member Giz… Posted May 14, 2020 Share Posted May 14, 2020 William Display and William Text (Typotheke) are mighty close 2 Link to comment
Solution Member Ric… Posted May 14, 2020 Solution Share Posted May 14, 2020 For “Bob Willis”, I think that Albra (Text) Light is an even better match. download at MyFonts Still looking for the rest. 1 Link to comment
Member Sta… Posted May 14, 2020 Author Share Posted May 14, 2020 Hi Gizzmo and Riccardo Many thanks for replying. Riccardo I think you've nailed the Bob Willis one. Albra Light looks spot on. I think I still need the 'A Cricketer....' one though. Bob Link to comment
Member Ric… Posted May 14, 2020 Share Posted May 14, 2020 It appears to be some cut of Caslon (as per Gizzmo’s suggestions), but the best match I can find would be an artificially emboldened Big Caslon. Second best, not counting the |a|, possibly New Caslon. download at MyFonts 1 Link to comment
Member Sta… Posted May 14, 2020 Author Share Posted May 14, 2020 Hi Riccardo Yes the |a| is very distinctive. As you say it looks very much like an emboldened Big Caslon. I'll keep looking to see if there is a particular cut at this weight. Many thanks for your help. Bob Link to comment
Member Kev… Posted May 14, 2020 Share Posted May 14, 2020 Caslon 540 (again, with a stroke added) might work for the subtitle as well. https://www.myfonts.com/fonts/adobe/caslon-540/caslonfiveforty-medium-2/?meta=/1250/A+Cricketeer+and+a+Gentleman/Caslon+FiveForty+Roman/ 1 Link to comment
Member Sta… Posted May 14, 2020 Author Share Posted May 14, 2020 I think the font is Big Caslon and has been emboldened artificially. See this example: https://www.findmyfont.com/fonts/font-preview?fset=Mac-OS-Fonts&ffam=&fid=854c75adbaaec0afbadf8e0c812482b6&fstyle=b&width=800&fsize=48&text=A Cricketer and a Gentleman&wrap=2 Many thanks for all your help.
