I have successfully recreated the HoJo logo, and I have a serviceable logo for the Hilton Hotel, but I'm looking for a more accurate form of the "HILTON" text for the logo. Does anyone know what font was used for the logo text? If anyone is interested, I'll post some of my images up to this point. Thanks in advance, conceptDIGITAL

It might be the Kubrick archives, the Hal project may have a note about it. Those are my two best leads off the top of my head. Good luck, I look fwd to the renders! -t

I don't know about the internals of how you would access them, but if you are having problems I will try to make them available to you. BTW, I must give Dennis Gonzales credit for helping me with the Hilton and Howard Johnson's logos. Thanks, conceptDIGITAL
