Does anyone have this complete font from an old 1870 map?

I'll probably have to create it.

I don't have a copy. I think it'll be a huge amount of work if you include those horizontal shadow lines and the diagonal fillings. I shy away from such details nowadays... life's too short!! D

True, but probably less trouble than rolling drunks at night.

Thought -- you might take your sample over to one of the font id sites: principally, Typophile. There are people who can help. Submit the image and beg... Dick
