[comp.fonts] Prisoner font bulletin

This sentence is in German when no one is looking at it.

This just in on the font from the TV series, the Prisoner:

Someone was recently curteous enough to inform me that a font
called Albertus is made by Studio 231, although he did not
know the company's address.

Also, as I continue to investigate this myself, I found a sample
of Galliard from Adobe, but it doesn't look enough like Albertus
for my taste anyway.  HOWEVER, right beside it in the book was
a sample of Friz Quadrata, which looks very MUCH like it!  (Again,
the 'e' is closed, whereas the Prisoner version is open.)

Unfortunately, I don't have a LaserPrinter. . . 

But there it is; take it or leave it.
