No wonder it looked strange

No wonder it looked strange – it was squooshed!

Thank you so very much

Your script is manually

Your script is manually condensed Sprint (Aldo Novarese, 1974).

I’ve seen it before on

I’ve seen it before on free font sites as “Splash” - not sure if it’s a rip off or not.

I am putting together an ad

I am putting together an ad for a town I grew up in, but no longer live at (oh the nostalgia). Was just trying to match the typefaces they used in their logo. Here is said logo.

Pretty sure “Parowan” is Anna and “Chamber of Commerce” is copperplate, but just can’t find anything for the top text.

Hi Patrick, never seen this

Hi Patrick,

never seen this … What’s the source?
While I like the ‘p’, I find the ‘a’ rather … unusual, and the ‘t’ downright ugly.
The only typeface that comes to my mind is David Quay’s irregular script Coptek – I am not saying that it is anywhere close, though.

Still no ideas on this one?

Still no ideas on this one? Here is a larger example of the typeface if that helps at all.

Thanks again.

Hello, any ideas on what typeface this is, can’t quite put my finger on it.

Thanks in advance.
