I would say it's close to Nisswa Plain, but the tops and bottoms
are heavier on Nisswa. So I'd use them in Photoshop and rasterize
the text. Then I'd clip off the top and bottom. It would work, but
not sure how to do that in Corel.

There were other fonts that were close, but this is the only
one that had that "R" with the curled up footie

I went to WhatFontis.com and it came up with 100 possibles-- The font is unique in that the serifs are all squared off, no curves. The closest I could find in the 100 is the URW Typewriter Medium- It's almost an exact match EXCEPT for the cap R, your sample has a curly tail, the font's R doesn't. Also, the font is wider but that's easy enough to adjust! :)

Egyptian 710. It is in several versions of our Corel Draw CDs

Here's a CD ver 9 file converted to curves.

Clyde .. do you have a link for that?
Because when I looked up that font on Google,
what I saw didn't resemble this very much..

Then again, some of those sites rename fonts for no
apparent reason.. except maybe to avoid licensing fees..

Clyde, That is a different font then the example above. Take a close look at the R and the style of the serifs. American Typewriter has curved serifs with dips in the centers and a different R. The example above is Egyptian 710.

Chuck, The image Clyde posted is American Typewriter Condensed. Do a search on ITC American Typewriter font and that should come up.
