Trying to fix a hodgepodge font situation with the small business I work for.

Their logotype was done pre-computer days and the original designer no longer remembers what font it was.

the logotype is on the top left of the website home page(R.E. Carroll Inc.)

www.recarroll.com

It looks to be a cross between Horatio and Futura.

Any help mailing it to something commerically available is greatly appreciated.

TIA

I can't give you an exact match it exactly off the top of my head, but it looks really close to a Washington.

Also look at:

Harry (Harry Plain) from Image Club Graphics (ICG), based on an 
original VGC design by Marty Goldstein and C. B. Smith. They offered 
it as Thin, Plain, and Fatt. These three fonts were still in the ICG 
library when it was acquired by Adobe.

There's also a clone from WSI/IMSI named Hammer

I can find Harry Obese (obviously an extra fat version) available at 
Red Rooster, but not Harry Thin, Harry Plain, Heavy, Fatt, or Obese 
Squeezed. Fonts.com, ITC, and FontHaus all seem to offer the same 
Image Club library collection, without Harry.
