 Hi Font gurus,
I am looking for the font in the image attached or the one on this picture:
http://www.traveladventures.org/continents/europe/images/paris2.jpg
Anything that would look somewhat the same would help. For example for the second one, I don't need the horizontal stencil lines, I can make it myself.
The first one looks a lot like many simple stencil fonts so it's not really my priority. I am more interested in the second one.
Thanks for your help!!

It has some ITC Anna flavour, but definitely not that typeface. There are many similar, but not exactly the same
For example
Blakely by Mark Simonson.
Judging the weird S, which is definitely out of style with the rest of the characters - this is a custom type.
Oh, and PARIS is plain Futura Book

Good choice, J. But considering the display being from an airport, and Frutiger was made for that purpose (for the Charles de gaulle Airport near paris) it could very well be this, too. (Roundness etc. due to the scan?).
So, where is the sample from, Hugo Rango?

I feel for you. This is one of the finest typefaces I've ever laid eyes on, and I actually tried to get my hands on it a couple of months ago. Eventually I contacted M/M (Paris), the designers for a lot of Ms. Gudmundsdottir's recent releases, only to be told that the font is theirs and theirs alone and is, was and never will be available either for free or commercially. Feel free to contact them yourself: if you have more luck, then well done you. You can e-mail them here: anyone@mmparis.com.

It was used as the main body text font inside the Reader's Digest Condensed Books (the ones I own anyway), but this screen capture is from George Orwell's "Down And Out In Paris And London" copyright page (its body text is a different font; it was only used in its copyright page). It was also used as the body text in Ethan Hawke's "The Hottest State," in the film-adaptation edition.
I hope you guys can help me! It's such a pretty serif. :)

Thanks Doghouse for your answer, but it doesn't bring any answer.
I will answer here once as long as you wrote the same reply on all pages requesting about HA fonts on Myfonts forum too.
Thanks for your kind "warning", i'm neither "member" nor "prospect", but FYI i'd say i had some... "acquaintance" with the Paris Chapter at a certain time of my life... i know who i'm dealing with!
You may not read french, but this is where the topic started
and i'm not dealing with anything wrong by answering a question about these fonts. I'm not the "User"!
You're warning the wrong guy.

For those interested, found this info(by Bitstream):
Frutiger
--------
This typeface design was initially prepared by Adrian Frutiger
for his friend Alfred deVolz at Sofratype. The working drawings
were made by Andre Guertler. The face was called Concorde and
was released in 1968.
When Linotype purchased Sofratype, the face was withdrawn, and
the rights were returned to Frutiger.
The design re-appeard in 1970-71 on the signage for the Charles
de Gaulle airport at Roissy outside of Paris.
Linotype purchased the design from Frutiger and it was
re-released as the typeface Frutiger in 1976.
It has also been released under these names, in no particular
order:

--------- -------
Concorde Sofratype (original release)
Frutiger Linotype (as Mergenthaler Linotype)
CG Frontiera Compugraphic
Provencale Autologic

That's the life all us amateurs have, Alex. We do work to earn money to do things we actually like. I still don't understand how can an intelligent man pay to sweat but, hey!, it's passion and that can't be judged ;)

Ehehehehehehehe! I'be been slow as usual getting the orange/oranje thing.
Anyway, my mother is possibly moving to New Zealand. Can't really say for now as the big international firm she works for has bought their contractors in India, Thailandia, Australia and NZ just a few months ago. We have been already discussing the issue of moving out of Europe - she lives in Paris, - for a while. My friend in Canada has been a loud sponsor a moving there but - even if Alex is absolutely right: we'd have to move toward sweet water sources and "cold" climates - the weather up there is too rainy and freezy. I'd end up on a psychologist's sofa just to get rid of a weather-caused depression. England, which I love, and Belgium made me that effect and I decided not to move there. I can't bear clouds and rain and snow everyday.
New Zealand could be a good bargain. Large as Italy, very few inhabitants and quite the same climate. Not to mention the large sheep community!
