Typeface on found index cards.

[HansFlimmer]

I’m trying to find out what font this is and if it has been digitised yet. 

Found a stack of index cards in a cabinet from a doctor. Can’t give any more background info really. Other than whales seem to be a  topic...

Thanks!

Just a pointer: it looks like the output of a proportional typewriter.

See, for example, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IBM_Electric_typewriter#Executive

Similar to the more “Helvetica-ish” cuts of Akzidenz Grotesk:

Thanks Riccardo. Some good hints.
I will try to investigate the proportional typewriter direction.
