(x) Soviet style posters - Nicotine, Kaiser, Liquorstore {PW (self), Stephen}
I’ve three fonts that I got curious about, on two posters. The first is used to spell “Abessynian” in the first poster:

The others are used for the top two lines in the following, “OBEY THE BASSETT”:

I’ve a feeling the “OBEY” font may have also been used by Shepard in the original OBEY series, but I couldn’t find an example.
I’ll be most grateful if you can improve my knowledge of fonts a little bit.

Okay, I just found the What The Font tool ( http://www.myfonts.com/WhatTheFont ), and I was able to identify the “aBESSyNIaN” as Nicotine. So I’m still looking for the two fonts used in OBEY THE BASSETT (which the tool did not provide any meaningful matches for).

Okay, someone was able to help me with the BASSETT font - it’s a condensed version of Kaiser. That leaves the last bit - “obey the”.
