Hello, I'd like to find at least a lookalike of this font.
Thanks :)
The second image suggests that you have already located the font; are you asking for a less expensive--or free-look-alike?
Search for "gaspipe."

Well, the pics are from a font in beta version, it's only for one title so a free look alike would just do it.
oldnick...is 'gaspipe' a name of a typeface or a type term I'm unfamiliar with?
Gaspipe lettering was popular for signage in the 1930's. It's called gaspipe because the letterforms are constructed like pipes – long, vertical strokes connected to shorter horizontal strokes with rounded connectors.

As workwork noted, Gaspipe simply denotes a style used by signpainters during the brush-and-paint heyday...
From Modern Sign Painting by Edward J. Duvall, 1949.
Ok, let's find some gaspipe, thanks :)

I found that http://new.myfonts.com/fonts/itfprimegraphics/signum/ It's not look-alike but thanks though.
