Jane D Posted June 3 Posted June 3 I am trying to identify the closest typeface for the text "Cawnpore"in attached lithograph image. The image is from 1857. Attributed to William Carpenter (1818-1899). Thanks in advance.
Solution Kevin Thompson Posted June 4 Solution Posted June 4 An outline version of Clarendon/Ionic. Clarendon Serial Medium would be your best bet for mimicking the look (set the fill to white and add a black stroke). 1
Jane D Posted June 4 Author Posted June 4 Thank you Kevin! Clarendon was the first typeface I looked at and then landed on Momentum due to the rounded serifs but it's not as elegant Clarendon. Do comment if you have thoughts. https://www.myfonts.com/collections/momentum-font-baseline-fonts
