Font fiends, I have a request of y'all.

Take a look at this icon accompanying the post, and and give me your best guess as to the serif font that you see in bits and pieces before the Futura-ish (sans serif) complete title pops up. It's almost, but not quite Times New Roman, imho. But TNR is a bit heavier, I think, if that makes sense. Gods, I wish I spoke typographic, but trying to self-learn Welsh is bad enough...

I'm looking for a good ersatz of that serif font - or whatever was used on the walls of The Hub, that'll do. It's for a tee-shirt idea which I promise to share if I ever put it together. It's all [livejournal.com profile] squeakydalek's idea. I'm just the graphics monkey. ;)

x-posted to my regular journal.

Identifont is your friend (http://www.identifont.com).

My friend (a font freak) and I went through the exercise of trying to identify it, and we came up with almost Perpetua (http://www.identifont.com/find?font=perpetua&q=Go).

In order to get the distinctive stencil-appearance of the Os, all the characters need a stroke to make their outlines thinner.

*nod* Over on my regular journal, a pal pulled up Identifont and made a slew of suggestions. I'm about to make a post with 'em all. :)
