If you compare the Vol 1 to say Vol 2, the quality of the hand copying in Vol 1 is quite astonishing, IMHO. I don't think I have ever seen anything quite like it in a jazz idiom. Compact, well-spaced, an excellent eye for compromises in a very dense page that is nevertheless clearly laid out - it set a new standard, just in time to be supplanted by computer copying. 8-(

Hi Roger,
The first "New Real Book" was hand-copied. Subsequent editions (Vol. 2, Vol. 3, the Standards Real Book, etc.) were done with some kind of music notation software, possibly Finale.
However, their fonts were developed in-house, and they are proprietary to Sher Music Co. They are not available to the general public.

Hi,
Does anyone know which is the font used in the New Real Books?
