    Welcome, Sylvie. Please show us the whole fonts, from several angles. Is the mark exactly the same on the other font? Or can something more be read on it? Please choose 'full size' when posting photos.

    @kyratango Do you have any thoughts about how to go about finding this. Foundry mark? Imprimatur?

    @Sylvie Good job with the new photos.
