Hi I'd really like to know what this font is.
It's very helvetica-esque except that it has smaller 'spurs' (?) on the lower case p and g and n. It's all a bit tighter too. It also has quotation marks that end in a point rather than more solid like helvetica does.
I've tried the identifont '20 questions' thing and it didn't find anything quite right. Also looked through many many many pages of 'similar to Helvetica' with no results.
If someone with a magic eye can identify it that'd be awesome!
I think it might actually be Helvetica Roman with added stroke to make it look like Bold weight. That would close down the openings like this and shorten the stems, like your sample, I think.
One of the keys here, I think, is that the terminals of the G, C and e are horizontal as they are in Helvetica.

Makes me thinking also to Akkurat Fett (especially the /a) but the /g is off and Akkurat is probably more condensed than your sample...
