that cover is from 1991? i thought gotham/knockout were newer, but assuming based on older cuts?

looks like an obscure gothic, maybe an opti alternate. i had my eyes dilated earlier so i can't really see it.

it's possible hoeffler first developed it as a custom font for SI and then later developed Champion, etc around the same principals

that's possible .. no one here is sure, but we use knockout now throughout the mag, but its not as chubby.

I'm with the assumptions that this is a Hoefler face for Sports Illustrated. Like many U.S. magazines, he has a history with them.
