Typographic poster for “The World’s End”

Bald Condensed15 September 2013 · 05:59

I have identified a good number of the fonts on sight, and was wondering if you guys recognise any of the remaining ones before I start searching in earnest.

I think I should know the Inline serif face for The First Post, yet I am drawing a blank. The stencil face for The Cross Hands looks like it’s based on Bodoni, but it’s not any of the Bodoni Stencils I know. The Bodoni for The King’s Head has this little protrusion on the “G” that throws me off.

Thanks for the assistance!

(I told you these on Twitter.)

‘THE FIRST POST’ is Hoefler Text Engraved No. 1.
‘Tne KING’S HEAD’ looks like Andrade.

I would agree that The Kings Head is Andrade.
The details on the ascender of the lowercase 'h' and uppercase 'G'.
I just wonder if the serifs are rounded.

Best,

I have never seen Serif Gothic on a pub sign… Nor Mrs Eaves, come to think of it.
