Find Font

OG is closest with Compacta Black. Almonte is not even close.

But the V appears to have been modified (see attached) and will need to be edited.

Help! Do you know this font?

[Gare]

Can you post a slightly larger example of the font?

Otherwise, the typeface you see is: condensed, has a very low crossbar on the "A", it might be an all cap font (no lower case) and the serif type is slab serif.

That's the info I can provide you with some descriptions that might helps others help you locate the font. Myfonts/com has a forum with expert human participants that are very, very good at spotting a face if the automated service cannot do it.

Thanks; boy the first one is a real head-scratcher because it looks like a condensed version of Stymie (also known as Lubalin Graph), or a condensed Clarendon.

Rhe body text has got to be a shareware font, and not something you'd choose from a major vendor.

I could offer something close, but you want the "real deal", I'm certain.

My Best,

Gart

Thanks Gare, I've been searching for a long time and didn't even come close to figuring out what they were. There are two sites I look in to help but so far with this and others I have batted zero.

Gary Priester has often offered the most direct route to figuring out what typeface is used: you ask the designer or the company!

Yeah, it's fun guessing and researching, but I also understand that it's sometimes as intriguing as watching grass grow, you know?

Seriously, there are SO many independent font creators that it's nearly impossible to find the precise one, because these "indie" fonts aren't indexed or cataloged anywhere. I get requests for "Whimsy", a Charityware font I built about every other month, and I'm stunned at where the requester found a copy. Bundled with Photoshop Elements (Adobe does NOT have my permission), on just about every font site, pirate or legit, but if you're a font creator,you can make the hassle of someone locating your typeface by simply putting a read me in a Zip file along with the typeface.
