I'd like to re-create this logo, because it looks so rough, but I don't know what font the lettering is in.

I've been manually comparing the letters to fonts I've found on the net for hours, when finally I realized that I should just ask. Thanks for helping me identify it!

ART is the Benguiat Book. That b, as is, I can't trace. But it might be a modification, in which case I would opt for Bitstream's Caslon No.224 Book. But I wouldn't bet on that. No way.

Thanks so much! I googled Benguiat Book and it seems that Adobe owns it, or at least I couldn't find it for free. Being ignorant of such things, I never thought of a font as something one might have to pay for. (It probably takes a lot of time to come up with new fonts, and obviously the people doing this would want to get paid, duh!) Unfortunately, I'm one of the few who is still uncomfortable with online purchasing.

After looking up Caslon No.224 Book, I agree that the "b" does look like someone used that font initially and then distorted the letter in a paint program (or maybe it's italic?).

Again, thanks so much for your help. The kindness of your 30-second reply saved me hours of manual comparisons. Perhaps now I'll resign myself to cleaning up the letters manually in a paint program, though I've been dreading this.

For the record, Benguiat Book, also known as Bankok (a Corel clone), is really the Souvenir by Morris Fuller Benton (1914) (cloned as the Southern by Corel). In the '70's the Benguiat was ITCâ??ized (mainly the lower case) by Benguiat and additional weights were added. The Souvenir, being designed 90 years ago is now free of copyright and can be found in many places as a free font. For example http://www.webpagepublicity.com/free-fonts/s/

Both Souvenir and Benguiat are part of the font collection that came with Corel Draw 4. The Corel Benguiat clone Bankok.ttf can be googled with ease. So, I'd say opt for the Bankok.

Still eager for the Benguiat? I thought most everybody had it as it came with so many Windows programs. So, also easy to find. The American Library Association comes to the rescue. Google tells us:

... Fonts used to create this Web site are Benguiat Book and Arial, which are assumed to be default-installed in most Windows applications. ...

At the bottom you'll find this:

Fonts used to create this Web site are Benguiat Book and Arial, which are assumed to be default-installed in most Windows applications. They can be downloaded by clicking on this link [FONTS] . You must then use an archival program (like WinZip) to decompress the files and then install them on your system.

As to be expected the link contains a zip with the Arial and the Benguiat.

A plain copy of the Benguiat. Quality Type :oops: just changed the name. Nothing else.

Two more copies. But these are worse. :( No kern pairs!

The Bangle copy is the Bangle Normal. Just Bangle is a totally different font. The same goes for Pegasus, the Benguiat copy is the Pegasus Regular.
