"My other half said to me, ‘whatever you do, don't you get rid of that font on that stand. That means something’."

I thought he used the word 'moss' rather than 'font'? |  | | |

A word on that font. We tried to find it a while back and we couldn't find what it was. Anyone else able to find out what it is? | | | |

How would she know that from just looking at it?
And is anyone really bothered by a font?! |  |

It is iconic on the front of the Cobbold. I was thinking the other day that if the stand is replaced at some point then the Ipswich Town Football Club in that font should be put on the new stand somehow. | | | |

A font is either an assortment or set of type or characters all of one style or its a vessel, often stone and sited in a Church, used for baptism ceremonies.
Happy to help Phil xx |  |

A quick google and uploading an image came up with a site that suggests it's similar to something called 'Antique X Condensed' - I'm no font or design guy though.

People moan about the state of the ground now, but for a season or so wasn't it missing an 'O' somewhere?
Maybe because they didnt know the font lol. [Post edited 2 Jun 2021 12:26]

You've got me doubting myself again now. Id put a pound on it being missing on the Cobbold stand, but no more! | |

You may well be right. Probably both at some point. | | | |

The font used on the back of the Co-Op Stand, and on the outside of the Cobbold Stand are a different font... the C is the main giveaway... Cobbold Stand is also using more of a condensed version of whatever font that is...

That is very close if it isn't it. The S doesn't look quite right but that might just be an optical illusion given its black on white rather than the other way around. | | | |

They were put there much later. Cobbold Stand wasn't called the Cobbold Stand until the late 90s and I think the other signage was added around the same time. | | | |

Isn't the Cobbold font the same as they used on Tolly Cobbold beer labels, I thought it was anyway | | | |

Certainly possible and might make sense. I wasn't frequenting pubs in the era the stand was built and the signage put up! | | | |

A bottle of Tolly's stout (old strong) was always enjoyable | | | |
