Woodtype sans

Quincunx

Hey people,

I need some help identifying one of the woodtype faces I recently obtained. I’m in the process of organizing them, and printing specimen, either to trace or to use later on when I want to print something with it.

Anyway, I have several typefaces, and traced only a couple of letters of one face, very quickly (of off hi-res photos of the woodtype itself) to post it here. When I have a proper print, I will scan it and post it, and the other faces too, when I have printed them.

I only know the typefaces were bought from someone, I guess a printer, about 20 odd years ago, but the faces are obviously older than that. And I’m (and thus the faces too) situated in the Netherlands.

Hopefully there are some woodtype connaisseurs on this board.. ;)
