Erbar 12^392 or Vogue 12_1980
Linecasters,
I’ve run into a snag in production with some very worn Linotype Erbar 12^392 Light Cond. w/Bold Cond. mats.
Wondering if anyone has a font in good condition I can buy, borrow, or rent, or as an analog, Intertype’s 12_1980 Bold Cond. w/Extra Bold Cond.
Trying not to have to redesign the project.
Best, mjb

I looked on Don Black Linecasting’s website and they have the Erbar 12-392. Here is a link to it.

P.S. I am an occasional customer of theirs but have no other association with them. My experience with them has been great.
Thanks Geoffrey, I actually own that font. For whatever reason Don/Craig haven’t deleted the Erbar listings from the site. I bought all sizes of it several years back.
On SOS Linotype website I found these listing:
24 ^ 299 Erbar Light Cond.
14 ^ 210 Erbar Light Cond. w/Erbar Bold Cond.
34 ^ 15 Erbar Med. Cond. Galley 1 of 2
34 ^ 15 Erbar Med. Cond.
