Font identification: Can you help?

[Richard]

Slipstream?

[Jamie Wood]

Nice tries chaps, thanks for trying. It is a bit like the first one – slipstream – but try to imagine drawing the actual shape of each letter with the teeth of the comb so the O would be like an areial shot of a running track…..

[Richard]

See if you can find it here

[Gareth.Lewis]

Woweeeee!

Thanks very much, I’ll put in my googly eyes and have a trawl through.

[Gareth.Lewis]

Right, believe it or not, none of those fantastically groovy fonts matched. I have two very (very, very) bad quality photos, sorry. Do they ring any bells?

Thanks in advance…

Gosh, I really thought I’d magically have an answer by now. I shall beat myself with a wooden spoon for being so presumptuous and promise not to expect so much next time…

I still can’t believe I did the old …’yes, no problem Mr Customer, I’ll get this reproduced in no time, leave it to me’… AGAIN!

Reminds me of a Letraset font…….you could try here

Harry,

Thanks, yes it is on that site. I contacted the site owner (Mike) who tells me the page it is on is ‘confused’ and directed me to the person who he thought was responsible.

Aaaaaaaaargh!

The thing is it is a bit complicated to reproduce from scratch, I have no decent photos and I now want to cry. Anyone on here invented time travel yet?

[Harry Cleary]

Whoops, didn’t click on RIchard’s link until now 😳 😳

[Gareth.Lewis]

Right!

I now have a very very very very good image – any ideas anyone?
Pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeease?

Thanks to Jamie for going to the trouble of looking on What the font for me.

[Peter Munday]

Gareth could you not make it from this font?

I’m going to have a go right now – thanks awfully!

[Jamie Wood]

No problem. I often try there, with varying degrees of success…

Cheers,
Jamie

Peter, thanks for that, I have now reproduced the text using your suggested method. Hoorah!
