Hoping someone out there has an electronic softcopy of the Beta B logo that I can get a copy of for something I want printed.  Not a photo taken of the B stuck on the back of a car but an image in the correct original font.

I could scan a printed version but thought I'd ask everyone if they already have a image I can use.  As I think the quality of a scanned image might not be up to scratch.

Just the B bit in the picture below....  If its part of something larger and I can cut / paste it into its own file thats fine.

Cheers

I wish you luck, Matt. I suspect that the β symbol in the photograph is a specially-commissioned (and heavily-stylised) creation. All the β symbols I've tried in a variety of different fonts all have the straight descender - none has a curved one. Probably the best way to get a good rendition of the β symbol is to find the best representation you can on an owners manual (or whatever) and get a drum-scan of it at a print/repro shop. It won't be cheap, mind...

I knew it would be a long shot, I've searched and tested loads of fonts and as you say, they all have the straight descender.

I'll start playing with the scanner now the colder weather has kicked in.
