Draftsmen's Gothic

elsketcho

Hi there,
can anyone recommend a good substitute for the font Draftsmen's Gothic? It's from an old Speedball book (20th edition, published in 1072). Thanking you in advance.

Sorry, scan attached this time!

This won't help if you're looking for rounded terminals and a hand-drawn look. But if you want actual type with similar letterforms, Bernhard Gothic might work:
