I needed to do some Peter Rabbit-related stuff years ago and ended up making my own font by modifiying Cochin. I don't know what the real font is called and I suspect it may be either custom or something old and obscure.

Thanks for the input Mark. Seems to be a bit of a stumper as no one else has piped in.

I'm actually looking for fonts used in 19th century childrens' books, primarily for display copy in a current book of short stories. The stories are rather unsettling and very clearly for adults but are about some rather messed up pre-teens, so I want to play off the uptight Victorian aesthetic of those old, didactic children's books. Beatrix Potter was just a place to begin.

Let me know if anyone has any leads or ideas I might pursue...

This is killing me.

I know this font but i can not find it.
i have seen it a million times but now can not find what it is?

1 - It's Comic Sans bold, squished horizontally.
