Perhaps you would like HFJ's latest: Tungsten

Forza is another good one, basically an updated Eurostile.

I'm kind of partial to Bleeding Cowboys. It's not exactly in the same vein but it does have a grungy Western feel. It may be a little too... cliched, maybe? for what you're trying to do though.

Friends don't let friends use Bleeding Cowboys. EVErrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

Top tip: eye dropper a little ink onto the page then blow on it with a straw.

Can you do type along a path in Gimp? Cause that will treat you a lot better than Paint

Century Gothic Bold

But use Futura Bold/Medium instead. Century Gothic is the poor man's Futura

It's very unlikely that that's a font. The way those letters connect seems to good for something that looks like it was made 25 years ago. (would require opentype features)

also that was back when actual artists still existed so you could have them do what they called "hand-letter-ing"

Yeah cause hand letter ing doesn't exist anymore

The Not Futura is Kabel.

As for Funky Futura Bold, Suspicious Dish is probably right. There were also countless knockoffs of typefaces -- when I was doing letterpress at school, we had a Futura Bold that was just labeled as "Egyptian". And then there's this though I'm not quite sure how relevant it actually is.

Thanks! I didn't have any luck with Identifont & figured that What the Font wouldn't work because of the angle.

Well, I mean I did isolate two words and un-skewed them, cause that's what you're supposed to do.

Does anyone know what this font is?



Constantia and Caslon Pro are similar, but not the same font.

What the Font says it's Karmina Bold

If you have Creative Cloud, Freight is a classic option with especially lovely italics

Though honestly those cards look fine as-is; the only changes I'd make are to reduce the size of the "logo" on the front by about half and remove the underline that doesn't match the aesthetic (or replace it with a scratchy hand-drawn one).

It's probably a free font off dafont or something. Put it through what the font and what font is with no results. My recommendation? Use your Creative Cloud license to get some better fonts for free.

That's hand drawn but fonts like Mostra Nuova are pretty close

Just want to make sure people know that if you pay for Creative Cloud, even at the $10/month Photoshop and Lightroom tier you get full access to Adobe Fonts which is easily the best value service they offer. Thousands and thousands of professional grade fonts with commercial licensing, though the interface does suck rear end.
