Font ID Please Help

[CSSigns]

The customer really likes the font that was used in a flyer that he had done a few years back and can not locate the font. I scanned the image to upload here for any help I can get IDing this thing. What the font did not even come close. Any help is very much appreciated.

No match here. Looks like something from the days of photo typesetting that might not have ever made it through to digital.

Fred hit it on the nose but didn't go back quite far enough. If you'll notice the "S" in cabinets is upside down, a photo typesetting machine couldn't do that. The only thing I know that could do that would be a "Ludlow" one of the old hot lead machines used to cast headline type in printing, goes way back to the sixties (and yes I'm old enough to have used one).

Thank you both for the replies. Ya the "S" is one of the first things i noticed as well as the ampersand. I may have to get them to reconsider their font choice.

Again Thank you

I'll say this - that's a nice looking font. One of our resident font creators just might be able to sell a few copies if they made a font based on these characters...
