Any chance this book cover type is based on a font? Or does anyone know a font that would be close? Thank you in advance, gurus.

I bought Sea Salt a couple of years back, which I think has some of the same vibe to it: https://creativemarket.com/ShellyLaslo/753795-Sea-Salt-Brush-Script?utm_source=google&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=PPC_GOOG_Search_INT_GB_DSA_INT_Fonts_FontTypes&utm_content=690688902845&utm_term=&gad_source=1&gclid=CjwKCAiAi6uvBhADEiwAWiyRdlKmUGmzZOAkfCpI9Y1DlPQ48QxW0fy1sH-lkkzo_4_wqJkXaDPA4RoCs4QQAvD_BwE

I also bought Sun Kissed by Ian Barnard from Design Cuts: https://www.designcuts.com/product/sun-kissed-brush-font-plus-bonus-brushography-pack/

@Bjørn Edvard Torbo Nice. Similar feeling in those 2 fonts. I can't help but think the sample is based on a font and I notice some of the characters are definitely repeated (a, s, l, etc.). Thank you very much for that input.

"New York Times.." is Ernst and Family Any ideas what the top font may be would be appreciated.

The largest type appears to be Hello Beautiful, employing a number of alternate glyphs.

@Kevin Thompson You, good man, are genius and in perfect timing for me. Many, many thanks.
