Custy would like both of these before they were chewed up.
That rug really tied the room together, did it not?

Thanks, but Katerine does not seem to have the same rounded ends.

CastorOne is pretty close to the top one. I can set it for you and send as curves.

Yes, we've won our share of awards, and yes, I've tested stuff and read the scientific papers, but ultimately take everything I say with more than just a grain of salt! So if you are looking for trouble, just do as I say or even better, do something I said years ago!

Please do Pierre, though I could probably get away with substituting any rounded san-serif font like Swiss or Arial, no one can refuse a perfect match.
The bottom one, at this point, I just re-drew over the existing image.

For the record, Castor One is not the winner.
Besides, I'm also looking for un-distressed if available. Otherwise, I'd just go with what she gave me. even if it is a little lower rez than we like.

Andy,
Ladislav Italic (either semibold or bold) is VERY close for the word "GLORY", but it too lacks the rounded corners.  Unfortunately, it's not free (at least I can't find it for free).

I'm working on the other one.
Grant me the ability to change the things I can, the strength to accept the things I cannot and the wisdom to recognize the difference.

Thanks Nick
Whenever I had a little time, I futzed around, and redrew"Revealed" and the "O" in Glory along set the rest in Arial Rounded, and have what I will sell my client as close to the original style made solid, as she requested.
Of course, if the correct fonts fall in my lap, I'll re-do it, but I think that this is going to work

Kinda' a shame that she doesn't want the distress as it really helps forgive  imperfections.
