first of all: hi to everyone, as i'm new to this board (but i loved it the 1st time i visited:-))

now: 4 font idents at a time:

no1

this looks some humanist, adsans, transport or so, but none of them are that bold ...

no2

this looked like flora to me, but then i noticed there is no italic flora cut. maybe alinea? not sure

no3

no idea, maybe handwritten, maybe not?

no4

also no idea ...

thanks! lars

I'll take the first two:

Gill Sans Extra Bold (#1);
ITC Humana Sans Italic Medium (#2);

The other two don't ring any immediate bells.

Lars --

No. 2 looks like TheSans Italic by Luc(as) de Groot.

-- K.

OK, more letters would help, but how about The Sans Italic from LucasFonts? I have mixed up those two before.

N� 3 almost has to be hand-lettered. The "e"s are slightly different.

unknown

Does anyone know why the Gill Sans has such a small dot on the lc "i" when it is heavy? And I've always thought that the lc "a" looks odd.

I think I'm gonna be stoned (have stones thrown at me) right about now.
