Amalie Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 I'm looking to identify the following fonts from historical material from the period around WWI. I'm looking for digital versions if possible. Link to comment
Abraham Lee Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 I'm not sure if they have what you're looking for, but the Walden Font Co. immediately came to my mind. 1 Link to comment
Solution Kevin Thompson Posted November 15, 2017 Solution Share Posted November 15, 2017 The last sample, Ville de Louvain, appears to be Washington: https://archive.org/stream/convenientbookof00allirich#page/230/mode/2up Sadly, only the condensed weight of this family appears to still be available in digital form. Scriptorium has an all-caps version called Mephisto. 1 Link to comment
Kevin Thompson Posted November 16, 2017 Share Posted November 16, 2017 “Richard PARDON, Succ” appears to be Unique Celtic. I don’t believe it exists in digital form. You can see it on page 158 of this digital archive of the Cleveland Type Foundry catalog (1895). 1 Link to comment
Kevin Thompson Posted November 16, 2017 Share Posted November 16, 2017 VIANDE FRAICHE appears to be a variation of AWT Page No. 500. 1 Link to comment

Kevin Thompson Posted November 16, 2017 Share Posted November 16, 2017 If you click on the word Washington in my post, you land on the Fonts in Use page for Webster.... 1 1 Link to comment
Kevin Thompson Posted November 16, 2017 Share Posted November 16, 2017 For VIANDE FRAICHE, you might also like a contemporary take on the style—appropriately named Charcuterie. 1 Link to comment
