Sparrow's own or Brodie D I think it's called mate.

Be warned though, you'll have to do some work with it, such as squeezing it together and the like to get that authentic Stranglers' feel. :smt006

For some reason I asked Yellowcake this same question when he was
up in Glasgow and I got the same answer.

I think he works for Letraset on the side, like.

Have you ever noticed how it's slighty changed over the years?. If you study one from the 80s to now you will see it is different. The red font is now Red & white,& it is shrunken down to stretched like it was in the 80s. I always thought they needed to get rid of THE part in the 90s.
