Hi,

does anyone know what typeface this is, or is it custom?
It's a extended stencil from the SF film Blade Runner.

I've attached the picture.

Thanks in advance!

There's a metal (foundry) typeface from 1962 called Adonis that looks very similar, except for the stencil forms. Maybe Adonis was the basis, but customized? Unfortunately, I don't know of a digital version.

No match for me too. A list of wide sans (for a possible customization): Flatiron (the closest to me), Idlewid, Doublewide, Zeppelin (53), Aero, Halogen, Stereo Gothic (even if the /C and /O look totally off)
