mshiremanNK Posted January 27, 2023 Posted January 27, 2023 (edited) 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...

Kevin Thompson Posted January 31, 2023 Posted January 31, 2023 Very similar to Gothic Extended / AWT W&W Gothic Extended (save for the R). Better for the R, but lacking the thick/thin contrast: Retrive Even better for the R, but you'd have to flip the A: Dassault 1
mshiremanNK Posted January 31, 2023 Author Posted January 31, 2023 I think Retrive may work for "closest match" purposes. Thanks Kevin!
