No it's a font for sure. Something Futura, I know that much.

all 3 of those font identification tools NEVER WORK for me. :(.
espescially since they are normally free fonts, and those 3 search the paid ones.

what!?!?! those fonts are nothing like the one he wants...

I think your best bet is just to find a similar sans serif font and dirty it up yourself.. i had a quick scan through dafont.com and couldn't find any grunge ones like that.

go to www.dafont.com or any other font site and ask on their forums.

Not an exact match, but try "Engine Dirty" here: http://www.helloproduct.com/type.html

it definitely isnt base02, that has a distressed square background around every letter like a stencil.

you could just manually make your own. get a similar system font, check out some grunge brushes and distress it... or god forbid someone with a computer actually take the time to do something by hand and scan it in.

i had to distress some text for a poster design but all the brushes were too small for my final size so i printed my text and went over it in some white paint with different texture items and smeared. scan it in at 800dpi and go 100 contrast and you have a distressed text custom made.

overall time including drying... maybe 20 min.
