Hi folks, need help to identify this typeface. I thought it was Beton Extra Bold but it is not (close, though).

Not an exact match but hopefully close enough: Stymie Black.

Have fun and ... be nice to the cats

Thank's, super. What do you say about the italic version?

well, considering that they existed before the digital age, I doubt there will be an exact match.

"The first Dinky Toys cars came on the market in December of 1933, but they were not called Dinky Toys until April of 1934"

Also no match. But skew the Stymie some 14 degrees and it will look similar.

Have fun and ... be nice to the cats

Thanks koeiekat. That helps. And neogray, you are so right :). They were called "Modelled Miniatures" before 1934.
