Hi all
I'm lost trying to identify the typefaces they used for those tasty captions. Sometimes [capital i] has serifs, sometimes not.
Maybe they were hand-drawn?
Thanks in advance

Thats 'Alpha Headline', as well..
As I stated above, 'Alpha Headline' originally was a CAPS ONLY typeface, with two alternate character sets..

carplates
(Sorry, no serif on the I.)
some suggestions here
Hehe, I was going to post the link to the same thread with Alpha headline charset, but occasionaly pressed F5 to see that I was late ;)
Do you know typefaces that come pretty close to Alpha headline (maybe derived from english car registration plates too), maybe like FTF Flama, but preferably with serifs on [capital i]?
I hope I'm not too nosy
Thanks is advance
ACME Carplates is a valid alternative, but unfortunately no serifs on the I.
The new samples with the explanation why the type family
went AWOL can be found in The Fonts : Custom Typefaces.
But do not despair! (...) exclusive license for the
Should be 'Alpha Headline', by Cornel Windlin / Lineto..
( Which originally started out as a CAPS ONLY headline typeface, and which is, sadly enough, no longer commercially available, as it became the new corporate typeface for Mitsubishi.. )
