I have to disappoint you. As far as I know this particular drawing was drawn specially for the prop, therefore we won't be able to find it. However got some other stuff.

Since the mentioning The New York Ghost, have there been any pages seen other than in the movie, that mention Ilvermorny?

Lynx, thanks for the link and tease. If you noticed, the NY postcard image has been released before. Nice to see the French items.

Great job! - What's the name of the font from the Crique Arcanus?

I've made a quick replication of the text on the flag. I'm so excited for this movie Hope to see some more Arcanus props pop up soon!

Amazing job! - What's the name of the font?

I'm afraid it's not a font, but a wooden-type/letterpress alphabet.

Indeed, not a font. So, I've drawn the letters by hand for this recreation.

Made the post card a couple of weeks ago. Since I'm going to Paris next week I thought it would be cool to print one out, add the gold and bring it to Paris.

Wow, thank you for sharing that TB-7021! That would be great to get it postmarked from Paris also!

 

[AZSneed]

Excellent work, thanks!

 

[TB-7021]

Finished the postcard and brought it with me to Paris
And who just have to wait patiently to see what the other side of the card looks like.

I figured something out! I'm still obsessed with the Giggle Water bottle. I think I finally found out what they used for the movie

If you look at the newspaper advertisement you can actually see the shape of the bottle. What looks like a hand holding a bottle is actually the shape of the bottle itself. In the movie, you can see the index finger as part of the bottle.


With that information it looks like they used 19th-century French Victorian soap bottle:

This is probably what the original prop looks like:

I am so excited to see the 2nd installation of the film, I hope that it is as good as the first one.

Hi all,

Here is something new I've been working on. In the Blind Pig scene, there is a single shot of a Gellert Grindelwald wanted poster.



I've looked at several other posters and noticed that the Eduardus Limus poster is very similar to the Grindelwald poster.



After a lot of comparing, I came up with this Grindelwald wanted poster. I'm still missing a couple of typefaces. Most typefaces/fonts have been mentioned in this topic earlier. I thought the font for the "FOR NO-MAJ SLAYING IN EUROPE" text had been identified too, but I can't seem to find it anywhere. This font is all over the Case of Beasts book too. So, this is what I've got so far. Any help with identifying typefaces is very welcome!

EDIT: the first missing font is Bourbon I think.
