That was done by hand...there might be a font out there that looks like it - but the original was done with ripped out letters from a magazine

kinda similar, but you'd get a lot better result doing it by hand...

(Oct 15 06, 22:01)Of course it was done by hand, that is why I stated, "a font that looks like".
come on man, jamie reid? I wasn't even born when he was doing all that stuff, do you really think I thought that was done on illustrator?

(Oct 15 06, 23:58)That's better thanks kev.
Now, I'm pretty sure I saw a typeface (as in ttf) that look a lot similar to the one that one that reid used (yes, by hand, with cissors and glue, not on a computer, way before computers had a graphic interface) but this font was designed by somebody to look like the real deal (yes not exactly I will get better results if done by hand, but there is a series of concepts I'm working on and I need to present mock ups, pretty quick, and it is not the right time to get full on on the production, when and if, its approved, it will be part of a time lapse animation made with photographs so my only option will be to cut the letters by hand from a magazine, untill thenI really only care about using a font as close to my idea so my client can see on paper what know is being shown as( type in ransom note style lettering) ...
anyone knows where I can find this?
(hope I was more clear this time, thanks in advance!)

maybe, as he already stated at great length, it would be a little over the top and time consuming when he could illustrate his concept with a font first, then get into the production once the concept's approved?
just a thought.
sarcy fucker.

"I am looking for a font that looks like the one used by Reid’s ransom-note lettering for the Sex Pistols."
