Quote: "Roadway is based on U.S. highway lettering observed on New York street signs. Two weights of highway lettering would often be used on the same sign, condensed for the main name and a half-size regular superscript for road or street."
Similar to Clearview-Highway (actual roadsignfont), Interstate or Blue Highway.

? Hello everybody,
This is my first post here and I hope that one of you can help. I am trying to figure out what the small body text used on http://www.firstbornmultimedia.com/ is. Does anyone one which font is it and where can it be bought?
Thank you very much!
Mark

Members can post messages asking for help with font usage, identification, etc.
If you are posting a font identification request, please attach an image of the font you would like to be identified.
In your posts you can use most of the BB codes.
For example:
[b]bold[/b]
[i]italic[/i]
[url]http://www.abstractfonts.com/[/url]
[img]/img/af.png[/img]
[color=blue]blue[/color]
The codes above become:
bold
italic
http://www.abstractfonts.com/
[img]/img/af.png[/img]
[color=blue]blue[/color]
Please post any questions you have regarding this forum in this thread

The typeface used for american signs is Clearface Highway. This is exclusive, I think, but haven't checked. There is one which mimicks it and it is one of the bestsellers today, it is called Interstate and you are lucky, there is cheaper version, too, called Blue Highway

Nothing exactly like it I'm afraid. But if you can live with an R that does not match the Interstate or the Expressway could do the job. A freebee is the Blue Highway.

You are not the only one who is confused. So am I. That is why I asked.
Trough a Google ad link on this forum I stumble on urbanfonts.com. Never heard of, so I go there to have a sniff and see they have a forum. First impression, must be brand new because there are hardly any threads. Then I see that all threads started after May 20, 2006 but some have already more that 35 posts. Not bad for a brand new forum. Curious as I am I also open my other eye and see that these 35 posts all have the same date and are posted within 8 hours. I get more curious and start digging.
What do I find? An excerpt of the former Abstractfonts forum. Messed up a bit and fancy user names but exactly the same posts. I find Liana (l-goldenquill). I find Tørnquist (nicknamed by me as the Viking and occasionally as Tweetybird). I find whole discussions between the three of us. Yet posts by the same person under different names.
So, I wonder; what is this?? So I ask: Alex, what is this urbanfonts forum thing?
The Alex in this question is Alex the webmaster of Abstractfonts.com. Is Alex who buried the old forum. Is Alex Chum.., Mississauga.
So, Alex, I ask again, why is there a forum on urbanfonts.com that is a messed-up copy of a part of this (Abstractfonts) forum?
Compare these:
http://www.abstractfonts.com/forum/thread/30995/7091#post7091
and
http://www.urbanfonts.com/forum/showthread.php?t=3 (ignore the first two posts in this thread). and jump to http://www.urbanfonts.com/forum/showthread.php?t=3&page=2
At the urbanfonts forum
'barrelt' aka 'byson' is hitesh.mehta.
'bullish' [how appropriate] aka 'chris' aka 'dodo' aka 'fox' is me, koeiekat.
'devon' aka 'falcon' aka 'ivan' is l_goldenquill [liana].
'gilman' is Tørnquist [the 'ø' never showed on Abstractfonts, remember the discussion about that?].
