Please help S.O.S !! :)

Looks pretty handlettered. Do you have any evidence that it actually was produced by software?

Thanks for the reply. And no I don’t have any evidence that software produced it. This image was scanned from a wedding invitation.

I think Raymond (microspective) is right that it’s probably handlettered. What would prove otherwise is to see more lettering in the same style, where we can see repeats of the same letters.

If you are looking for commercial alternatives, you might check out the scripts of Rob Leuschke (at MyFonts), or the work of Alejandro Paul at Veer, or Sudtipos.

Hi Mike,

Thanks for the reply and the suggestions. Here is another example.

That last sample makes a stronger case that this is a font, and I really think it looks like many of Rob Leuschke’s works. If so, it must be something that he does not sell through MyFonts. I just checked his own site and didn’t see this either, so it’s a mystery to me. He may have drawn a custom font for the stationer where you saw these samples.

You could write to him and ask. I’ve done this before and he responded.

I don’t know - those e’s all look slightly different to me, though it could be the texture of the paper. I’d still be willing to bet this is custom lettering.
