Forgot to do that. Done now

Date _1936_ could be rendered -- more or less -- with Copperplate Gothic Pro 33 BC http://myfonts.us/td-U8Dxbt



Edited:
The fonts used in the card in the image are not identical to original card from 1930s and card in the image looks like a reissue from perhaps circa 1960s

Lainie Day is based on a 1943 script by Bluemlein, according to Luc Devroye.
Seems to be an independent digitization in 1993 from a published specimen.
Also digitized as Liana in 1998 based on Lainie

Are the alternative letters -- such as the curvy _S_ glyphs -- included in any of the digital fonts?

Perhaps custom lettering.
The _B_ has some similarity to Monotype Script, but it's not identical.

Suggested font: Script Bold
