Hello there,

Does anyone recognize this?


I suggested to my friend (who asked me if I knew anything similar) that it looked like a weird reworking of Electra. He seemed offended for some reason.

Oh well, if anyone could help me out I'd greatly appreciate it.

Kind regards,

Graham

ah, just found this thread (as my friend informed me it was called 'Boomer');
http://www.typophile.com/node/45301

Apologies if I have offended anyone (except my friend, heh heh)

G T

oh dear, I should really read things before posting them as that is not boomer…

please ignore all the gibberish I speak.

(though if anyone does indeed know what the above sample is, that'd be beaut)

Thanks,

Graham

Your example is Quiosco: http://www.fontbureau.com/fonts/Quiosco

Designed by Cyrus Highsmith (same as designed Boomer) and influenced by Dwiggins & Electra.

Excellent,

Thanks very much Kent.

I wonder why my friend had it down as 'Boomer'?

Thanks again,

Graham
