Anyone know the font used on the marquee-like signs here (without the lights of course)?

if you can ID what is used for the actors’ names, that’d be helpful too.

thanks

marquee-like signs looks like ITC Kabel Ultra.

Samuel Goodwyn - Bodega Sans with some vert scaling, perhaps?

It’s as close as you can get, I’m afraid. Probably customized.

Oh man, I knew it had to be a Font Bureau font.

Technically it wasn’t a Font Bureau font at the time this poster was created.
