I thought it might be Potrzebie by Patrick Broderick, but it isn't.
You might find it here...

If you don't find the actual font and want to use Potrzebie, it can be
downloaded here...

Thanks Bill,

It is pretty close. Although it is not for immediate use, I was asked
what is it and I became very curious about the font.

Strange you mentioned Patrick Broderick, because the other one I thought
was close is Nomadic Egyptian also from Chank, I was begining to think
on a kind of modificatoin of Nomadic, I don't know.

I looked every old font Folkard (http://www.dafont.com/folkard.font),
the "y" is close to it.

I've looked the http://bowfinprintworks.com/, several old font. No success.

thanks

I believe was able to find something:
It seems to be at least based in this type:

Field, Thomas White
Aylesbury (1773-1832)
(C. & W.) Thomas White Field took over the business formerly run by
Joseph Quartermaine in 1804, in the Market Square, Aylesbury, where he
was a freeholder. He probably served his apprenticeship with Joseph
Quartermaine or had a close business interest for an 8-day movement by
Quartermaine has been found with T.W. Field, Maker, stamped on the
inside of the mechanism.

It comes from a watch maker Thomas Field, Aylesbury Watch Maker, made by
hand I believe, I am not a professional, the mean line a little bit heigher.

Does anyone have more images of watch papers from this watch maker.
