This has stumped a chump!

I have never posted before, let alone requested anything...
But I am in need of locating a font...

This is for Orlando Clipper Boat Company, who went out of business approx 30 years ago.

My buddy is restoring one of these old boats...

I am not concerned about the Orlando Text, but I need to locate the clipper font. (Does not have to have the windblown tic marks)

Thanks in advance to anyone who can locate it...

Hand-rendered.

It's the spitting image of a font we used to use called 'Slash'. Unfortunately, it was totally hand painted using flats. I'm sure someone will find this one on a computer somewhere.

think yer gonna have to vectorize this puppy yerself. You'll spend as much time if not more trying to scare up a font that you'll realize doesn't match in the end.

Yeah, it won't take all that long to trace and clean...

 

[weaselboogie]

It's CLOSE to Balloon, but you'll still need to do some work. It would be easier to trace and scan

I'd send a good pic to the Vector Doctor
It was probably a hand cut screen originally

vectorize and mask.. all done. 30 minutes.

I too would do it with vector by hand, then go back and create the wind ticks, then mask and paint by hand. Would look much better I'm sure.
