In Reply to: Is there a Font close to what Karlson used for his early decal? posted by freddyi on January 15, 2017 at 10:10:54:
-- Bruce Kennett, who some of you may know from his days associated with "Listener" magazine.
Bruce, who is a heck of a guy (but not an AA "inmate" at present), kindly offered this information and allowed/encouraged me to share it:
You want the type called Trafton Script. It was designed in 1933 by Howard Trafton and issued by the Bauer Type Foundry. Back in the metal days Bauer sold it as Quick in Germany, and in France as Étoile, but any digital versions are likely to be located via Trafton Script name.
Well, there we have it!
The photo shows Art Dudley & Bruce Kennett from the Listener days (see link below).
all the best,
