I should know this, but I can't put a finger on it.

Hmmm, it's like a display version of Times with Caslon caps. Interesting!

Times was the closest match I could find, but it isn't exact.
The T doesn't match any of the Caslons I have.

The sample is from Newsweek magazine, and it may well be a custom font, but I'm trying to match it as closely as possible.

Thanks!

In that case, it's almost certainly a display version of Matthew Carter's Fenway.

which is no doubt unavailable to the public.

thanks, Mark.

The sample of 'Fenway' I see in "The Art of Matthew Carter" doesn't have a full serif on the leg of the 'k'. The font was designed for Sports Illustrated magazine, a TIME-Warner publication, which Newsweek is not. However, Mark, I think you got Matthew Carter right -- because he designed 'Vincent Text' for Newsweek, and I think that's what this is.

Yes, you are probably right.

Miller?... maybe???... in know i'm very late... Mikey
