Default Keep the Faith Font?

I'm drawing a tattoo design and was wondering if anyone knows where I can find the font from the Keep the faith album, I need the whole alphabet.

A few years back I was also searching for the "Keep The Faith" font only to find out there wasn't one. If you look closely at the KTF design on the CD cover you will notice the lower case "e's" and "h's" aren't even the same. There is no proper font (the whole alphabet) for it. (unlike the "These Days" design which is a proper font that is used throughout the whole These Days CD booklet)

As far as the info on the link "Joeykid" posted, doing the google search for it will not help and "Stucco" IS the Richie Sambora font....not a Keep The Faith font.

I have a tattoo with a red rose and Keep The Faith on it and I just took the CD cover art with me and the artist used it to get the same writing for the tattoo.

Stucco is the KTF font. It's not the Richie font. I don't understand why people think it is, tell me if it is, where's it used for then ? It's not on Stranger or Undiscovered Soul. Stucco is the font that's used for the "handwriting" on the front of Keep The Faith. BonJovi is the original font that's used for the band name logo's during the KTF, Cross Road and TD era.

Salaam Aleikum,
Sebastiaan

As fas as I know Stucco is not the Keep The faith font. The letters with stucco are not the same as the Keep The faith logo on the album. You can see it on the letter P. It is different.

It might be the Richie font like the letters Sambora on his shirt?

I know the letters don't look exactly the same, but it's the closest you can get. It's just like the font Gim for These Days. It's not the same, but you can't get any closer.

Salaam Aleikum,
Sebastiaan

There are fonts for the exact typeface used on any record, but they are commercial fonts that you have to pay money for. Buy an Adobe font pack, you should get all the fonts you need.

Yeah and like the Old Gondor font is as close as you'll get to the Sambora font.
