my teenaged daughter wants me to make her a T-shirt with the text GLADIATOR screened..
so this should not be too difficult to ID... huh?
Jack,
I think the font is Castellar (Monotype) that has been filled in. All the letterforms look the same to me, especially the G, T & R.
Thanks Jack. That's a pretty funny-looking 'Font Gladiator'.
Yves, have people been telling us that there was a way to use Google to search the Typophile archives? I tried using the Typophile search and Google and couldn't get any answers, so I sat down with the Font Book until it jumped off the page. The T and R were what I kept looking for.
It is, and we had this one before. 
Well, James, our resident archive meister, taught me this trick: go
to Google and do an Advanced Search, where you can restrict
your finds to a certain domain, in this instance typophile.com.
It worked this time.
