Anyone have an ID on this wonderful face? I am a bit lost as the M and W have left me perplexed. Thank you!

Mark,

Thank you for the information. Much of the discussion in the link you provided is why I think I found myself so baffled in determining what this was. Again, thank you, I genuinely appreciate it.

Why would the font in the image above not be Silver Thread as seen here by Jason Walcott:

I realize there is a good case for comparing hairline fonts to apples and oranges, but I would have to throw that Jukebox font into the mix as well.

So I don't know if this one is truly solved.

Silver Thread is a digital revival of L&C Hairline. I wish Jason Walcott/Jukebox would properly credit the sources. Likewise, the blurb for Eloquent doesn’t mention Pistilli Roman. I wonder if it is a legal issue?
