Here is a sample of Benguiat Charisma Script from the Script Guide:

Mike, I think this is Gaston, you can check it in the Solotype Catalog (p. 101) and it is in the Dover Bold Script Display Fonts CD.

You're absolutely right, about the font and the Dover CD. It's shown in full in the 'Bold Script Alphabets' book by Dover too. I just didn't look far enough. I knew it wasn't a match, but I saw it was close, and thought it might be close enough.

Good catch Ignacio!

Thought I'd mention that Castcraft lists an Opti version of Gaston.

It's very similar to a film type called Benguiat Charisma, which was once included in the Expresiv Photolettering Font Collection put out by Tiger Direct in the mid-90's.

The intial letters are a lot like E+F Candice, but Charisma's lower case is more like this sample. I may have a sample of Charisma in my Script Guide, and I will post it if I do.
