blessings of the masses

blessings of the state

…

i return with humility . asking the eyes of the typographic experts here in these forums for help

in identifying the following typefaces .

these pages are from a magazine by the french design group WORK IN PROGRESS

in use is lubalin’s classic + misused AVANTGARDE . along with what i think might be another lubalin creation .

THE TYPEFACES WITH “SWASHY” CAPS . i think i may have seen it in an U&LC . but i forget .

i’m interested in the swash font in particular but

please id all fonts in play .

the second attached file has a heavy display type . WHAT IS IT ?

peace + bless

I just love Aerosyn-Lex Mestrovic’s requests — they’re over-the-top slightly off-kilter poetic extravaganza. They’re the highlight of my Type Identification Board experience. Really.

RESPECT IN KIND .

Thank you all for your expert opinions .

I appreciate the focus .

…

So CASLON has a set of SWASH CAPS ?

I wasn’t aware of that but I’ll research that a bit more .

WOULD ANYONE BE ABLE TO RECOMMEND A SIMILAR “SWASHED” DISPLAY TYPE ?

something like BELLO but less “SIGNAGE’Y” ? ? ?

TROUBLEMAN . my thanks and praise . peace be with you .

Aerosyn-Lex, lets hope blood isn’t the new black, too much of it is being spilled in the middle east, and oh, in our own neighborhoods.
