Ugly, but familiar typeface... Any help?
The sample is small, but it looks like Lithos maybe.

bingo. I just couldn't remember! Thanks!
Why would you describe it as "ugly"? It may not be Carol Twombly's best face, but I quite like it in certain uses -- in fact, I recently did a brochure that combined Lithos with Tiepolo and it was a big hit with the client....
I don't know if I'd call it "ugly", but I'd never use it. I think it's a cultural thing.
(Note to self: never use Lithos in work for Belgian clients.) ;-)
:-D
