sorry for the quality - photo off the tv: http://www.dazeofourlives.com/CaptionFont3.jpg
Formal 436 (a.k.a. Oscar).
Thank you Mark!
Aha! Also, many thanks for the tidbit of the aka name Oscar. It was originally an Aldo Novarese design! I just knew it was good! I saw it used as the caption font on the Fox News late night comedy chat show "Red Eye", The shots I took off the tv screen are here: http://www.dazeofourlives.com/CaptionFont1.jpg http://www.dazeofourlives.com/CaptionFont2.jpg
No shots of the lower case, but when I saw that used in the tv show's captions it only served to make me more interested to find out what font it was.
Again - thank you Mark!
