WPA Poster Font

Geofferino

Hi there,

I'm doing some work for a client on WPA-esque style posters. He's provided me with Duarte for some of the other areas of the poster, but I need to find the font I've attached here as it has been used on previous posters and the client doesn't have it. I ran it through whatthefont but to no avail.

Any ideas guys? Help much appreciated.

Thanks.

Hard to tell from these samples, but most WPA posters were hand lettered. Magnesium is a decent match.

BTW, I made a font based on another WPA lettering style. I'll give you a good deal on a commercial license if you're interested. ;)

Thanks for the help. Magnesium is a good match. Thanks for the offer too, but I only need Duarte and whatever this other font is for the project at hand :)
