I am pretty certain I already own the font used in the main logo, but I don't seem to be able to identify it by name. Does anyone know the name of it? (Please don't send me the font, I just need the name) I keep thinking it starts with a B, but maybe not.
Thanks in advance, Mike Jackson

Mike- It looks similar to Bauhaus except for the A and N- you tweak those yourself. Hope this helps,

Try bahama, which is a deritative of bauhaus

Businko, or Businko Squeezed
Mike, "Businko Squeezed" is the actual full name of the condensed version of that font, and I do believe that what's in the logo you show.

Mike I think its Busarama Bold

Thanks all, I think it is Busorama, a URW font. I downloaded Businko from a shareware site, but it is different in a few characters. I modified it enough for this little For Lease sign.
Many of these fonts look so similar and then the names start sounding similar after a while. I remember seeing it and kept thinking it started with B. I'm 50 now, so I have an excuse!
The job will go out soon! Thanks, Mike Jackson

20 is an excuse...90 is an excuse....50 isn't. Posted by Arthur Vanson (Member # 2855) on :

Hey Arthur, Yep, looks like you know your fonts! Thanks for taking the time to help me get it right. By the way, I love the fonts you did for Letterheadfonts.com. Very nice! I'm a big fan.

Mike. . .Sadly, I only know the ones I know!
Thanks for your compliment. As you already know I'm a big fan of yours I shan't bother to mention it. Posted by B Daniel (Member # 11) on :
The funny thing was when Mike said "I keep thinking it starts with a B, but maybe not". I used to think it was just our shop. Not a week goes by that one of us doesn't ask the other. "What's the name of this font? I know I know it. I think it starts with a (you name the letter)" How do we remember the first letter but not the name? Curious..

Don, Being 50 is the only excuse I have right now! For the previous 49 years, I could only say I failed to recall something. Now it is safe to say I just plain forgot the whole thing.

Arthur, what Font Sample preview are you using on your post image?
Posted by Arthur Vanson (Member # 2855) on :
Hi Scott, Bitstream Fontnavigator 3.0, it came with one of the earlier versions of CorelDraw, images captured with UltraSnap.
