Hi!
My name is Abel Martín and that is my first post at Typophile :)

My question is about that wood type that i have in my letterpress cabinet.
I would like know the name and maybe some about the history...

Thanks!

After almost seven years of putting it off the time has finally come to assemble a portfolio and stationary etc. Over the last few months I've been looking at a number of typefaces to use for 'branding' myself so to speak and have almost certainly settled on Akzidenz Grotesk Condensed Light and Regular.

The things I love –

The things I do not love –

In the April 7th 2013 issue of New York Times Magazine, they use a rounded-condensed Sans Serif that has square tops (sorry for the incorrect terminology) on the capital A. Anyone know what this is or who makes it? (See attached image)

Hello - -this post follows up on a search fro a very similar condensed serif used for Time-Life (http://typophile.com/node/102039)

I am trying to identify the typeface used in a Hernan Bas catalogue from last year, published by Distanz in Germany... any help much appreciated, thank you!

Hello

We would love to know what font is used on this very popular series of books published in the late 80s by Time-Life

As ever, many thanks for your time and expertise! This post is also related to an enquiry about a similar tpyeface used on a Hernan Bas catalogue from Germany which I will be posting next...

Any ideas about this font used on an ESPN cover is? Thanks!

I feel like this should be easy but I couldn't find it :/

Hi y'all,
please help me id-ing this monospaced sans serif font.
Thanks a lot!

Hi there,

Just trying to find out what this font is. Many thanks!

I'm looking for a versatile and (dare I say it) modern condensed grotesque, mainly for headlines and shorter texts.

I need:

- upper and lowercase
- italics
- A few weights would be nice
- the ability to use as a webfont.

I've been using this as a "placeholder" for now:

Any suggestions?

So I'm doing this poster and don't want to hassle with finding the perfect wood type, but I want something with a little more character that's available in digital. I'm currently using Grotzec X-Narrow Bold with some mods, but I'm not set on it. Hoping to get some other suggestions to very condensed grotesques that look a little more like wood type with interesting idiosyncrasies.

Thanks for the help,
Joseph

What font is this or any very similar to it? Particularly looking for something with the subtle rounded edge.
Thanks in advance for your assistance.

I love this font... any idea?

Can any one ID this for me. I thought Tungsten but it's not...

I need help finding this font.

Look at the special characters such as S, R and G

Thanks!!

Hi, if anyone could please offer any help in identifying this font it would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers, Jamie

Hey there typophilers,

I was wondering if you guys can help me identify "ELIXIR"s wine bottle typeface.

I am trying to identify a font I’ve seen in Paris, for the communication of “Les Ateliers de Paris”.
The same font is used here: http://www.marieclaireidees.com/data/photo/w308_c17/boutique-ephemere.jpg

Anyone can help me?

Greetings,
Long time Typophile reader, first time posting.
Anyhow, I can't identify the condensed sans-serif typeface used by Utrecht in nearly all of their promotional materials— I thought it might have been Folio Condensed or Anzeigen Grotesk at one point, but Folio Condensed (at least the light version) seems to have a lower x-height, and Anzeigen comes only in bold and the capital "R" is markedly different.
Please advise.

Thanks!
Robert

Hi All!

I met this beautiful, condensed italic font (serif, but not very much) in my (previous) paperback edition of [The Design of Everyday Things] (wonderful book, BTW); but I cannot exactly identify the font.

Can anyone help identify the above font and equivalents.

Thanks.

Hello,

I'm looking for a Bold Condensed / Compressed that matches "Solano" only with Hebrew Characters?

Does anyone know where to head to?

Thank you

Alex
