what font is this ?

looks like an avant-garde black or something like that

It's a variant of ITC Avant Garde Bold, I think. The band Boards of Canada uses in some of their promo materials, I think the only thing really changed is the "A", with the slant.

thnx guys


colossus ,whats the website where you can try and find out what font it is ...i had it some time ago but lost the link somewhere



Holy crap! That's a big message! And I thought a 30K image was nuts!

the slopey a is from the extended character set found in avant garde gothic pro,

honestly, I cannot remember that site, i was looking for that font to make a fanboy BOC wallpaper.

finished the wallpaper but left off the font.

It is not a variant, it is avant-garde, in its original design, avant-garde had a lot of alt characters like A cap on the right and on the left as well as the normal one, remember these letraset sheets 20 years ago? :)

i think that was already established by dephunked

rtft

most people here cannot remember letraset sheets, because they are yet 20 years old themselves.

i got some letraset sheets a couple of months back, and i have to admit they were the most fun i'd had in ages. in a geeky typographical kind of way.

hmm.. i have about 27 different versions of avant garde and i can't find that boards of canada "a" on the character map x:
