This may not be available as digital typeface ( Well, I am pretty sure its not ), but does anyone of you, fellow Typophiles, know of similar ones.? ( Its from a vintage 'Kores Farbband / Typewriter ribbon' package, I bought recently at a local market.. )

Thanks, Yves.. The whole package, just for you.. :-)

Heinz Schumann's Stentor has a similar feel, but without the quirky angularity.

I've skimmed through the Jaspert 'Encyclopaedia of Type Faces" and that's about the closest I saw. I wonder if someone like Dieter Steffmann, who didgitizes a lot of German and old typefaces, has seen this one. I will try writing to him about it.

Just heard back from Dieter Steffmann, and he says he has never seen it.

So now, once again, my lack of older European type books grinds my search to a halt.

Sigh.

Thanks a lot, Mike and Tiffany..
I really like 'Loupot'.. Very nice..
