I'm pretty sure this is a font, but I don't know the name. Help!

Jenson, cut by William W. Jackson US Design Patent 19810 May 6, 1890 sold by MacKellar Smiths Jordon.
Character set extracted from the microfilmed patent

There might have been an alternate _E_ similar to _F_.
As for the format used to put the letters on the Wings album, I have no idea.
Given the era it could have been transfer letters, hand lettered or photo-type.
If it was sold as a product, a name other than Jenson seems likely, given that the name Jenson was taken for other fonts.
