'Sound Thinking' Americana-like Serif
Hi Folks,
This serif has baffled me. It reminds me of Americana, but the x-height is quite different. The ’T’, ’k’ and ’g’ seem pretty distinctive, and do not match Americana.
Anyone recognize this?
Thanks,
- Mike

The g reminds me a bit of fligh high bold... But the serif style isnt the same:/

I haven’t heard of that font. Do you have a link to show it?
For some reason I think I have seen this as a display font, from a small foundry, or maybe a freebie font, but I have not found it in Larabie’s stuff or Nick Curtis’s freebies.
Any other ideas?

It reminded me of Broadsheet by Luke Owens, but that only comes close.

’Broadsheet’ is just Owens’ take on ’Americana’, so that doesn’t get us much closer.
I think ’Fligh High’ was actually Ingrimayne’s ’Fly High’, right? That’s not too far off, but as you said Paul-Kenji, the serifs aren’t quite right.
The way the letters disconnect suggests adding negative stroke to the letters to erode them, but I still can’t place the font. I thought ’Carlton’ had some similarities, especially in x-height, but I don’t think that’s it either.
Any more ideas?

I just looked back at the sample, and I don’t know what I was imagining when I said Carlton was like it. Never mind that one. Maybe Carlton flattened would be similar, but nah.
