The equilavents of these in Koch Grotesk by Poem would be 20 Text for “THE” and 36 3 Cicero for “GERMAN QUESTION”. Also I’m pretty sure that’s Vogue, not Tempo. Note the kitchen sink shaped r and circular b counter.
Thanks, Quinn! Agreed.
Wait, Quinn, wym by “kitchen sink”? Do you mean “faucet shaped” r?
Why not both?! ;-)
Any other fonts that have the faucet-shaped r other than Vogue? I know Intervogue, Lydian, Quasimoda sports them too.
Plenty! Druk is one among the more popular contemporary ones. It does have a tight-spacing alternate, though. So did Aurora-Grotesk V in metal. It’s a feature you tend to find more often in condensed styles, see for example Helvetica Compressed, Haettenschweiler, Compacta, etc.
