There's a font I'm curious about, I wonder if anyone here knows it. I seem to see all round Czech Republic, I don't know the name, but you can see it in the sign for this place (the pic outside - "BUN CA HAI PHONG"): https://www.tripadvisor.cz/Restaurant_Review-g274714-d11686718-Reviews-Bistro_Hai_Phong-Brno_South_Moravian_Region_Moravia.html https://www.tripadvisor.cz/Restaurant_Review-g274714-d116867... It's used a lot in Vietnamese restaurants but also appears in random businesses (garages, hairdressers). I also saw it a lot when I visited Vietnam - I'd guess it's from there.

Banco? By the same designer and mentioned in the article. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Banco_(typeface) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Banco_(typeface)

  I remember seeing Banco everywhere on storefronts in France when I was there on holiday as a kid in the 80s. I immediately recognized it because it's also the font of the Thrasher magazine logo. Back then, I found it hilarious that every third boulangerie and charcuterie had that "Thrasher" font. I've never seen it on a German shop sign, though.
