Looking for a typeface that revived these letters, if it exists. I couldn’t find one. Anyone could help out?

@fhardwig@mastodon.social @BijouType@typo.social I really like the detail for the 9, it seems it’s common to all the round shapes (see the R below)

@fhardwig@mastodon.social thank you! These links are super helpful. It seems impossible that a revival of those shaded letters isn’t available, but if you haven’t one in mind I doubt it exists.

Replying to
@BijouType@typo.social @typographica@typo.social that makes total sense! Thank you for the links!
