Someone's asked me for a specific IBM cut of News Gothic. Aparently it was used in Photosetting and possibly on daisy wheels. Does anyone know of any sources for this font? Possibly digital, although unlikely.

IBM News Gothic
Its been a few years, but I remember this coming up previously
on Typophile. Maybe related, on page 18 of the Karel Martens
Printed Matter book, there is a scan of IBM Selectric Composer
Classified News. It looks very similar to News Gothic. Maybe
they're related somehow.
