Font help
« on: May 23, 2012, 08:43:03 AM »
I need a font that is similar to the font used in Indians logo.
I'm guessing that is a custom lettering, but anything close to that would be greatly appreciated.

Not looking to recreate the Indians logo, but have customer that likes that look of the font. No need for an "I" like that, I'm trying to match small lettering.

Thanks

That rug really tied the room together, did it not?

I was going to suggest that it was hand done, but that logo was used, in some form or another, since 1994. Which suggests that it was done on a computer. That was around the time that desktop publishing started to boom and fonts were freed of their lead trappings. And the n's look exactly the same. Is this design going to remind the viewer that it looks exactly like the indians' logotype?

Like I said, I need something similar, it does not have to be exact type.

Team Spirit has a similar feel, but you will have to lose the funky tail it automatically adds.
