    Rich if you have the other side do a rubbing and vectorise it or go for nearest match no one will notice (apart from us 😛 )

    …it’s not Justice System but that may be a better match than Goudy.
    Lynn is right, the customer will not have as sharp of an eye as we signfolk.
    love….Jill

    Hello Richard,

    The font is called Leiden DT Bold.
    Sorry, I don’t have it, but it’s on MyFonts.

    Cheers,
    Jamie.

    No problem…glad to help. Sorry I haven’t got the font.
    Maybe someone will type the text you require & put it up
    as an outline.

    Cheers,

    Sorry Rich, haven’t got it, and have searched the web also but as you say, is for purchase only.

    Good luck. (If you tell the customer it’s an extra £120 for that font, they’ll probably tell you to get as close as you can! save all the hassle.)
