Traveller Font

What Font is used on the covers of Traveller Books?

The font used is called Optima, try this site for a free version. http://www.fontspace.com/category/Optima

That actually depends on WHICH Traveller books you're referring to - Classic Traveller did indeed use Optima; I believe that my analysis for the Mongoose Traveller black books came up with Eras.
