Hello all,

I would like to identify the titling face used by Harper's Magazine. It looks something like Caslon Graphique, but that is not quite it. Any ideas? [sample attached]

Thanks,
Josh

Looks a lot like Tiffany but not exact, the C for example is different.

Actually Caslon 224 looks closer on second look

Caslon 224 Medium is very close, but I don't think exactly it. Might it be a custom version?

Could definitely be a custom version. It's finer than the Caslon.
