I would be grateful if anyone would identify this font for me please

Hi all
I would be grateful if anyone would identify this font for me please and if there any free similar font, thank you

Leo. Off hand it doesn’t look familiar.

Try https://www.myfonts.com/pages/whatthefont

You may also add that picture for identification

Leo, welcome to TalkGraphics.

Off-hand, I would suggest is Baskerville Oblique or Baskerville Old Face.

As Far as I can see only the J is out and could be baseline shifted.

Possibly Image Club Graphics' version of Century Oldstyle Bold. My ICG's disk has the bold, not Bold Italic. So the below was manually skewed.

Hi Mwenz
Thank you, it does look similar, may I ask please how you did the skewed?, did you converted to path and skewed it?, and please if you would kindly share where I can download it please
Thank you
Leo

Hi acorn, I agree the J is definitely different
Thank you

Thank you Bill
It does look Century Old style. However, it's quite pricy

Many thanks all
Leo

The skew was done to live text.

I don't have--nor do I believe there ever was--an italic version.

Even my Adobe Font Folio 11 has only regular, italic and bold (no bold italic). The italic is a "true" italic version of regular.

Skewing bold like in olden times in software matched the sample.

Thank you very much

Thank you
Well, I would be happy if I have the italic style that keep the a as a, when I select the italic style the a is the closed one. I forgot to say that I am using Inkscape to design this poster, I could easily use the italic "style" from century old style in any program except in Inkscape, quite tricky. Ah, and the J is different as well, I think I gave up

Many thanks Chris, It's funny when I select Italic the but it's different, thanks anyway

Thanks all
I forgot to say that I am using Inkscape to design this school poster, I am able to easily use the bold and the italic style in any programe (specially MO). However, not in inkscape, that's why I asked if you converted the text to Path, ......etc.
Also when I select italic in inkscape the a is different
Anyway, I give up, I think it's quite difficult

Thank you all

Oh. also the J is different, such a shame
Thanks allAttachment 134737Attachment 134738

Yes Italic, I have to say I have replied yesterday and today, but it seems I still don't know how this site work, I'm quite ignorante, I have also attached another Jpeg but I can't see it

Hi all

How ignorante I am, it seems that I am replying to myself and no one see the rely, how stupid 🙈
I have also attached another file that I only see, 🙈I'll try to post it again
Many thanks
