How the chuff did you find that? Did you use a "findafont" thing? Or was it a jedi mind trick? "This is the font you are looking for......."

I trawled through DaFont, took about 15 minutes to spot it. They manage to categorize their fonts fairly logically. I've also looked for the LaCross font today but it's not there. A couple quite similar, in the same "spirit", but not identical. Do you want the links?
While I was looking, I came across two interesting fonts which I downloaded for myself. I definitely wouldn't have ever found them otherwise. That's why I enjoy the hunt!
But I suppose you need the peculiar sort of "skill" to recognize typefaces which only dedicated font freaks have. Plus I got lucky!

Actually, while looking on that site, I found two or three ones in the style of the font as well. I decided to use that on the handle of the 6pack carrier. It's close enough, and the client didn't even recognize the difference, or actually care I don't think???
Thanks again for the hard work, and I'm glad you found some to add to your own library!
