I've actually spent about 30 mins here having a look as I know I've seen that funky 'f' before but I'm afraid I don't know and must get something done today...

Its definitely Taledo me thinks

still not the same, but pretty close... the one in the example is closer to Garamond Bold Condensed in proportions...

- NOT a good version of Trooper. It's some Fontographer hack, and many of the letterforms are screwed up. Check out the Italic Heavy "S". Atrocious.duckofrubber

*sharts uncontrollably at the mere thought of "Garamond Bold Condensed".
- you're a nice guy, but whenever you talk type or design you make my skin crawl...neue75_bold
- sorry that was out of line, to each his own...neue75_bold
- I can has this scentence in euro english please, sir...skser
- gramme0
Why on earth do I make your skin crawl?
- nevermind, we're just just polar opposites... I see beauty, you see/make shart and vice-versa..neue75_bold
- he has something against sharting, for some reasonhallelujah
- I make shart? Seriously? I can think of at least a couple projects that got glowing reviews from you...gramme
- you misread that... you made a shart according to your above post...neue75_bold
- I seegramme
- hallelujah0
in all fairness, our conceptions of beauty change with the winds of culture... at a different time gramme may have loved Garamond Bold Condensed, whilst I'm willing to bet Mike G. sharted
- *shartshallelujah
- indeed, but regardless, it's not even worth noting, I shouldn't have said anything...neue75_bold

Garaldes look awful when condensed, imho. Scotches, Moderns and others based on steel type pull off the condensed thing much more gracefully—i.e. Bodoni Condensed, Chronicle Condensed etc.
- there is a retro/ irony factor that appeals in today's design culturehallelujah
- The more vertical axis of steel types helps them maintain grace when condensed.gramme
- a frison of naughtiness attached to using a previously outre typefacehallelujah
- eh--what do I know? I just photoshop logos onto signshallelujah
- that kind of talk will earn you a blacker turtleneck, sir.gramme

- I'm all for irony... if it looks good. I realized that's entirely subjective.gramme
- neue75_bold0
you kids run along without me...
I'm not going to wax subjective on the finer or lessor points of type, as it's not something I really enjoy or find very interesting or beneficial...
but I do apologize for my outburst...
- no worries. Now go set some condensed serif type.gramme
