Been wondering the name of the font used on the cover of the Moleskine? I’ve been told that it looks like Copperplate (see example above), and I tend to agree, but the trouble is that I can’t find a free version of Copperplate font. Does anybody know where to get a free Copperplate font?

I’m having trouble finding licensing info for these, but there appears to be a free Copperplate at http://fonts.goldenweb.it/index_file/l/en/d2/True_Type_Fonts/c/c/start/150/default.html

Thanks to Adam Shamblin, I found two free fonts that look great.
