Here is the logo I took out of the stock one with some simple cutout and just on the stock background if you want to just resize and stick it in there.

I couldn't find a matching font, but I did make use of the logo image you provided in making my lock screen wallpaper. Since I used copyrighted artwork in making it, I'll just describe what I did instead of sharing the finished product. I started with Michael Whelan's artwork for
A Princess of Mars. This is a landscape sized painting he did in 1978. It can cover both the front cover and the back cover of a book, and it does not include the book title or the author's name. I resized the image to have a height of 1872 pixels. I then cropped off as much as I needed to of the left side to give it a width of 1404 pixels. I greyscaled the cropped image. I extracted the word "likebook" from the logo, deleting everything surrounding it. I wrote the word "MARS" below it in the "Blippo Blk BT" font. I tried to match its width to the width of "likebook", but since I couldn't get an exact match, I let "MARS" be a little bit wider. I resized my "likebook MARS" text to fit the width between the two columns in Whelan's picture. I transformed this into its negative, making it into a brush with white text and a transparent background. I set the brush's transparency to 70%, and pasted it between the columns, so that the gap in the A in "MARS" came just below the peak of the arch John Carter was walking underneath. Since I use my Likebook Mars upside-down with an app that rotates the screen, I rotated the image 180 degrees so that when I press the power button, I will see it rightsideup.
