Hi, Type ID-Detectives,

I really like the way the three typefaces work together (i.e. the sans, the serif & the slab), but I am frustrated by inability to identify ‘em due to a misplaced Rockledge and, perhaps, a lack of zeal due to a current bout of brochonitis. Would y’all be so kind and help out this uffering b-tard? Thanx, Geo.

The serif looks look a Bodoni, but I don’t believe it is.
The slab looks loike a variation on Egyptianne but it isn’t.
And, the cap ” R ” in the sans is really throwing my weezing and conjested brain for a loop.

It looks like Engraver’s Roman, Engraver’s Gothic (or possibly Blair) and Stymie to me.

Hmm… the ‘R’ in Engravers Roman isn’t right.

Indeed not. Hmmm, what could it be?…

I think it’s URW’s digitisation of Craw Modern.

I think you got it. Welcome back Yves. How was Lisbon?

Is a fourth face used for $29.50, $125.00 and (2 oz.)?

At first I thought the 2’s were Berthold Akzidenz Grotesk, but the 5’s don’t seem right. They don’t appear to be Stymie’s numerals either. What are they?!

Thanx, folks for another case solved. Ooddles of hosannas and a couple of thousand Deadwoodian Hazzahs from to each and every one of ya ! —geo.

Lisbon was coo. Expect reports popping up on Unzipped over the weekend. ;^)
