Please help identify font

I have seen this title font used on several sword & sorcery books published back in the 60s and early 70s. Can anyone help me identify the font and maybe provide a link for download? Thanks!

I recall those books and loved the Art Nouveau titling.
But when I checked this title against my Petzendorfer Treasury of Art Nouveau Alphabets I drew a blank
All I have to offer is a font with similar flavor

Don,

Thanks for taking the time to reply. I have been searching for this font high and low for ages now. I have several fonts that fall into the Art Nouveau category, including Rudelsberg, which is very similar to the Eckmann font you suggested, but none of them fit the bill. Oh well, the search continues.

Thanks again,
Shane

Here is another example of that font being used for the title of a book.

Seems to me that this is one of the photolettering era fonts that were probably not digitized. Could be Photolettering Inc., Letraset or ??? Might be an amateur digital from the 1990s...

After years of trying to find this font, I stumbled upon it today out of the blue. Too bad it hasn't been digitized.
