Anyone know what the font is used on the back covers of the Beatles Capitol CDs? I am looking for the numbers in squares (I know it some kind of "dingbat" or "wingding" font) and the regular heavy/bold font that looks sort of like Impact.

Thanks,

BOB

After posting this, i found a GREAT site to help identify fonts. You have to answer 1000 questions, but it get's you in the ballpark. It looks like it might be Compacta Bold.

Here is the link:

compacta bold (http://www.identifont.com/show-fontlist?8+537+4ZR+1BQ+LM+6WJ+KK+51O+53E +3OK+51Y+8O2+1FG+3DY+290+61T+PW+SK+29R+V M+595+WU+61U+6JG+3HI+WW+FW+2OL)

There are a few other selections on the side. Unfortunately, it appears that most of these are "pay" fonts.
