I think this is a modeification of a Modern font, such as ITC Modern No. 20. If you just cover up those missing serifs I think you get this look.

Here is a simulation of this, compared to the original. I used ITC Modern No. 216 in Light weight. I can see I should have used heavier, but this demonstrates the idea. I made blank white squares/rectangles to block off parts of the top serifs and most of the foot serifs. I think this is how it was done.

Doug, The reason I picked Modern was the very long tail on the 'a', but I can see Bodoni is also very similar. It is the sort of font that T-26 or maybe Psy-Ops could have, but I couldn't find one. I like the simple approaches for making 'one of a kind' titles, and blocking out parts of letters is easier than modifying letter outlines, or designing a new font.

Sometimes it's even easier than finding an obscure font that might not exist.

I think this would be Modern No. 20, the old Stephenson Blake face, not the ITC one. With the serifs lopped off, as you say Mike, and stretched.

Yes, I agree Mark. I mentioned No. 20 in my first response, but the version I had looked too far off the sample and so I used the ITC font to demonstrate the way I thought it was done.
