DragonTelecaster Posted September 26, 2011 Share Posted September 26, 2011 Is it just me, or did 20th Century Fox use/borrow the font off of LZIV for their TV drama, "American Horror Story"? I think the font is known as "The Kashmir True Type" font. Brian Davies may be the originator? They're not identical, but close enough. Even so, seems sort of like a cheap ripoff or something. Kinda cool, yet it isn't. Know what I mean? Stay hard. DT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackDog71 Posted September 28, 2011 Share Posted September 28, 2011 I noticed it too. Kinda cool. Not sure if it is the same font, but it sure looked like it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolfman Posted September 30, 2011 Share Posted September 30, 2011 I think they used "Dyer" which is very close LZ's font. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pblaster Posted October 1, 2011 Share Posted October 1, 2011 Very similar to Desdemona font. Used to be in older versions of MS Word, but I think you can still download it. http://www.microsoft.com/typography/fonts/family.aspx?FID=92 http://www.identifont.com/show?1N7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ledzepfilm Posted October 1, 2011 Share Posted October 1, 2011 Seems like a twisted version of Dyer. Can't be Desdemona. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pblaster Posted October 1, 2011 Share Posted October 1, 2011 I was not aware of Dyer. I was in the middle of checking it out when I saw your reply. You are correct. Seems like a twisted version of Dyer. Can't be Desdemona. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karoline Lamm Posted October 30, 2011 Share Posted October 30, 2011 What about the ITC Willow Font? Seems close. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karoline Lamm Posted October 30, 2011 Share Posted October 30, 2011 Turns out the Led Zeppelin Font is the rip off–not the other way round The font used on American Horror Show seems to be the Charles Rennie Mackintosh Font which was created a while before LZ's font.

ledzepfilm Posted October 30, 2011 Share Posted October 30, 2011 Seems that Zep had some influence for their font! I think it's that font but it's highly condensed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geordienz Posted November 7, 2011 Share Posted November 7, 2011 The AHS font is a slight derivation of the Charles Rennie Mackintosh Font as someone already posted. LZIV's font was very similar (alhough a serif font) to the type of Art Deco lettering which was used to advertise some of CRM's European exhibitions, but is quite different to what has become recognised as the Charles Rennie Mackintosh style. I think this is the original . . . www.crmfont.co.uk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
