Anyone know if a digital version of this BlackLetter face exists anywhere? This sample was xeroxed out of an old type book by a client of mine who wants to use it for a project. Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks,

Ladies and gents, please welcome Mr. Jan Middendorp, editor and designer of the recently defunct Druk, the quarterly magazine of FontShop Benelux, my previous employer.
Thanks for your help you guys!
That Blackletter resource [http://www.romana-hamburg.de/fraktur1.htm] is amazing - is it actually a type foundry? Any other unique BlackLetter links I should know about?
Hi Stephen, hi Yves, hi all,
It's an honour to be welcomed by such harmonious flourish of trumpets.
The Druk story is kinda off-topic here, but let's say that all parties decided that it was time for something new, and one party (guess who) that it was time for something less expensive. I'm now thinking about an English-language anthology of 4 years of Druk. I may have a publisher for it, I only need a volunteer with impeccable English to edit the text....
Any luck with the Fleischmann, Dave?
Dave, I cross-posted my question. Glad to see you're happy.
