Topps card Dom Casual version?

frott

Hi -

Old topps baseball cards seem to be using a modified version of dom casual for the players' names. I can emulate this via a distortion fairly easily but wanted to see if anyone had insight as to an official bold / wide version that matched. thanks!

Don't think it's Dom...the Rs don't match, for one...

It could be an "off" version of Dom. I have an old Lettergraphics catalog that shows a face called "Dom Bold" that looks very much like this (edges smoothed, lacking the hand-brushed quality), and doesn't match the typical digital version. It's the same proportions as the original, but stretched horizontally would be a close match, I think.
