I was wondering if anybody recognized the font that is used to spell out "Rolling Stones"

Hi,

it's named Othello in a book from 1985 ... but I can`t find this typeface with this name. The search gave me another typeface similar to Neuland. Only one hit: the outlined on:

Edit kk:

Sorry Uwe a link to that site is not done.

Bye Bye

Hi,

OK, I try it again without critical links ...

In times of Phototypesetting the typeface was known as "Othello". You can find it in Book from the 1980th and so on.

There is a typeface named Othello still available but this typeface is different. It`s close to Neuland and/or Lithographer.

Back to Othello: I found the Outline in the WWW and the Copyright says:

Digitized by Dan X. Solo. Software 2001 by Doiver Publications Inc., New York.

(typo Doiver is real!)

Dan X. Solo leads to Solotype:

But there is no typeface close to Othello. It's might didn't made it to the computer era.

Bye Bye
