<img src="http://www.hughesd.fsnet.co.uk/forum/ticket.jpg" align="left" hspace="5" vspace="5">Dave, this is a picture of the "Black Oak" type I asked you about some months ago. I have two "lino" slugs - 6 pt - of this typeface, whatever it is called. Someone suggested "Beton" - nothing like it. It is the "ADULT" line that I am referring to on the ticket. I still have not contacted our State Museum to see what they have as the Government Printer fonts went to them. I have seen a 1954 type book, but this type is not shown. I hope to see a later book and see if it is shown there. Everyone I have asked just says that they have never seen or heard of it; but I have two slugs that says it does exist somewhere.
Regards, Geoff Dean, Box Hill, Victoria, Australia.
