(x) Valentino logo w/ sharp tiny serifs - Arrow {Mike Y}

Stefan Seifert

Another question about a fashion type without scan (sorry;-)
Is the Valentino logo custom made or an existing typeface?

Stefan

I guess this is what you’re talking about:

If that's the logo, the font looks like Arrow, in the book or light weight. Possibly the middle serif on the E has been removed.

First of all, thanks Florian for the image.
It is the one.
And thanks, Mike!
Seems to be a worthwhile trace, yet, on the link you gave I found only the ultrabold version.
Tried to search for it on fontshop without success and stopped after a while in Google for thousands of symbol types came out for the arrow. I am too stupid for good searching.
In any case I think something was done with a standard font, yet, changed a bit.

Thanks so far
Stefan

Great Mike F!!

Hey Mike Y,

think you came pretty close!
I believe they used it.
Who did it? ;-)

Thanks guys, great help!!
I am proud of you all at typophile!
