It would be a shame however to simply digitize the original and call it a day. I think it's possible to honor the original without plundering the hard work of Paul Carlyle and Guy Oring.

New Letters and Lettering, is that the title of the book. If that is only a sample, it must be a real gem.

Man this is beautiful hand lettering and I would like to see it as a font out there for use! Not sure about digitizing it though. I would like someone to go in there and really craft it out. Perhaps build a bigger family and fix some of the line weights. Great find Ty!

Do you have a higher resolution scan of those letters? We might have some type designers interested in digitizing it.

I have posted your question on Typophile and perhaps the international type community can help you find an existing font with a similar feel. You can track the Typophile discussion here: http://www.typophile.com/node/57039 Cheers, Ty Hi Ryan – This particular sample is of hand lettering so no corresponding font exists to my knowledge.
