CNOOOOON Posted Thursday at 08:20 AM Share Posted Thursday at 08:20 AM If anyone knows the typeface (or a similar one) from the type at the bottom of this postcard. Particularly drawn to the idiosyncratic spacing on 'PARADISE'. Thanks! Link to comment

CNOOOOON Posted Thursday at 11:26 AM Author Share Posted Thursday at 11:26 AM Thanks, it does look really similar. The 'ISE' feels more condensed? Link to comment
Kevin Thompson Posted Thursday at 11:46 AM Share Posted Thursday at 11:46 AM Safe to assume that your sample dates from the 1950s at the latest? Then we are dealing with a pre-digital or even pre-phototypesetting (i.e., metal type) version of Bookman. Modern digital versions may not be an exact match. Given the letter spacing of your sample, it may also be a typewriter version of Bookman. 1 Link to comment
