What is the font used here?
It looks hand drawn to me.
There are variations in common letters, and the angle of “radiation?” varies all over the place.
It’s from 1976, so it ain’t type on a path. I think you’d probably have to slant a script font backwards to get it to work like that as well.

Thank you for your reply. I figured it was hand drawn, but I was also looking for suggestions of a typeface to use to get a similar feeling. The closest I’ve found so far is Monterey.
Sorry I meant to mention Monterey, but I got distracted.
It’s the S and W isn’t it? but it doesn’t have the contrast, you need something more like Palace or Commercial script for that.
