From Wikipedia:

Norma Zimmer (July 13, 1923 – May 10, 2011) was an American vocalist, best remembered for her 22-year tenure as Lawrence Welk’s “Champagne Lady” on The Lawrence Welk Show.

This album of hers uses a bold Bookman with swashes, the exact version of which is yet unidentified. Smaller bits are added in another Bookman that is a match for the ATF version.

  1. Are you sure it’s neo-Bookman (Headliners)?

  2. No, I’m not. Looking at the g with the big ear to the top right, it struck me as the closest match. But looking at other details – like the counters, or the flared terminal of e – it probably isn’t neo-Bookman. It isn’t Bookman Swash either. I changed the label to unidentified typeface

    For comparison: neo-Bookman Black
