Some version of Akzidenz Grotesk surely, but which one??

Nah, that awkward "a"…
I think my money's on Monotype Grotesque.

I'd say Gothic 720 Roman is pretty close.

Gothic 720 is Bitstream’s version of Monotype Grotesque, basically the same typeface.

Shame on you, it’s Venus.

Jürgen, it’s not.
It is either MT Grotesque or Gothic 720.

Shame on me! I think you’re right, Jan. The 5 and 9 are narrower in MT Grotesque. These old Grotesques are all very close.

Thanks guys. Glad we sorted that out.
