Coastal birds stamps

[PeperWeet]

Hello,

I'm new here. I would like to know the type of font / typography on the coastal birds stamps. I only found this:

Does anyone know the answer to my question & does anyone know if they are always the same on de modern American stamps?

Thanks in advance!

House Eames Regular Italic for Red Knot and Eames Book for the rest I think.

Actually I think that USA is Eames Book but POSTCARD could be Eames Medium, too small to be sure.

Isn't it strange that there seens to be no attention for fonttypes in modern American stamps? Modern dutch stamps always mention the fonttype and the designer of the font.

 

How can we be absolutely sure about the fonts on the coastal birds stamps?

In this case, the fonts are the ones cited by Ignacio.

In general, you can ask the art director:

Where can I find more info about these fonttypes and the designers?

Click on the link in Ignacio’s very first response to you—it will take you to the Eames page at House Industries.
