Question:

What is the font used for the TV show Poirot?

I need to know the name of the font which is used in this image. www.geocities.com/Paris/Rue/11... Ignore the P and H in this image as they have been edited, but thats the font i'm looking for. Its not ITC ANNA.


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: What you are looking for is called Plaza by Alan Meeks

Plaza (ITC)
Plaza is the work of British designer Alan Meeks, an Art Deco sans serif style. It includes many alternative characters which offer endless possibilities. Plaza is ideal for work in which a feel of the 1920s or 30s is desired.

The more styled letters used as the Capitals are in the swash version of the original. The knockoff versions of the original below have the Swash characters as the Capitals in the one typeface. Uppercase=Swash Lowercase = Regular:

Plaza SH (by Scangraphic)
