This is my first post... sorry to start off by just asking questions and looking for Font IDs, but apparently, that’s how I roll. :)

I am trying to find two different typefaces.

The first would be the typeface used in the “district five” logo. I am trying to find the typeface used for the “american advertising association” and word “district”. I believe they are the same.

The second is the Rapha logo. I’m thinking it might actually just be handmade, like the Titleist logo (titleist.com) was... but thought I’d ask.

Any help you might give would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

Flickster

District could be an edited Gotham Book. The lowercase s is the most distinguishing character. Could be wrong.

It’s Insignia.

We’ve had the Rapha logo before. It was indeed hand done, (digitally) by me in 2004 for Rapha Racing.

Stephen, thank you for the help... and Nick, it’s a truly beautiful mark.

Thank you both.
