(x) "Goin" very condensed sans - Alternate Gothic {Jan E}

I see this font a lot, yet I don’t know it. It looks like an extra extra condensed Trade Gothic.

Looks squooshed. Could be Alternate Gothic No 1.

Geezus Jan, you’re a freaking type ID machine!

Hey, I might have spoke too soon. The TTF version is $0.00 or $5 for the Postscript or Opentype version.

Well, look at the spur of the G. I’m afraid it’s not Steelfish, but it’s close (and cheap). I said it could be Alternate Gothic, because I wasn’t so sure myself.

Andrew - whenever Angel or Akira (and many others) show up I feel like a complete amateur ;-)

ID wise, I think you and I are well suited, I can even keep up with Stewf, but Angel he’s a whole other beast all together.

Anyway, I was looking at that spur too, and I think it’s still to hard to tell at 72pt. but you might be right, it might be too sharp. However, the rest of the letter forms look right, even better than Alternative Gothic, and the price is right!

I’d say, if it’s Alternative Gothic, it’s probably going to be this one: http://www.myfonts.com/fonts/efscangraphic/alternate-gothic-sb/no-one/
