chaosmachine Posted September 29, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 29, 2009 Only got MATTEL wrong. It's easy if you look for s or c. Helvetica has flat ends, Arial is sloped.

Guest beatfanatic Posted September 29, 2009 Report Share Posted September 29, 2009 Also F is quite different too in Helvetica and Arial I would recommend a documentary called "Helvetica" for all the font nerds.

Guest KY Posted September 29, 2009 Report Share Posted September 29, 2009 19/20 the F, G, R and angle of the stroke ends are giveaways, but the Toyota one threw me off; I wasn't paying enough attention to proportions of the letters. so fuck toyota, i got 19/19.
