Hi Ryan,






The font used is an adaptation of "ITC Bauhaus". Some characters won't be
identical to what was used in the Westfalia logo; it is common practice for
designers to alter typefaces when they see the need. Font designers often
supplied a separate set of "swash caps" that were substituted for certain
letters where the shape or subject suggested it.

Happy Trails,
