Claude has the correct font. Page source info, as shown by a program like Litmus Builder, explicitly states the name

Another similar. Stroke weight somewhat lighter. For the Italic, trailing connectors do not reach as far right. Otherwise quite close.

Suggested font: De Vinne

Thanks Claude.
Porter has a magazine, which is also available in English [and Italian?]
The digital edition is available in pdf "vector text," an eps rendering of font letters not the font itself.
Credits page states "Chronicle Fine Typeface by Jonathan Hoefler"
The _S_ for body text looks like:

Which is similar but not identical to the _S_ in the image. Perhaps there is a display version? Have not yet found it in the pdf.

Compare the thick grey letters to Shelley Andante Script with _M_ reduced to 90%, all letters thickened by a parallel line and sloped left 8 degrees:



If the sign-maker did some tweeking, such as rounding the ball terminal on _M_, then this thick version of Shelley Andante Script would have been fairly close to the final design.

A magazine? If so which one.

The thin white monoline script is actually neon tubes bent to a custom pattern.
The grey background is a formal script with ball terminals.
It looks like a thickened version of Shelley Andante Script, or a very similar script.

Suggested font: Shelley Andante Script

Poster for a 1946 movie. Handlettered _HOUSE OF HORRORS_. Note variations in repeated letters, e.g. _R_
Creepster Pro is clearly derived from the title and/or indirectly from it via horror comic books that imitated the style.
Note that Creepster Pro has different versions of the letters for upper and lower case.

Suggested font: Creepster Pro

Sep 07, 2017 at 13:56  [reply]  letters font name?

The user is expected to use the stamp letters so that they line up like a standard font. See the top of the box shown in the lower half of the image.

This is Morris Fuller Benton's Century Schoolbook, created for American Type Founders, 1915-1923.
It has a condensed uppercase that matches the one found in Paratype's version of Century Schoolbook. For the lowercase use the regular width.

Identified font: SchoolBook

Titling Gothic FB Skyline has parallel sides for _G_ while other versions of Titling Gothic have curved sides.
Hovever, the counters in the Skyline version are too narrow. So Titling Gothic FB is not a match without substantial editing.

I had forgotten about the narrow width of Champion Gothic Bantamweight -- which revives the old designs found in triple condensed gothic.

Looks like a halftone newspaper photo of some version of the old time wood type fonts usually called triple condensed gothic.
A similar style of _S_ and the other letters is found in a modern digital font called Cactus Bold, but ITS NOT THE FONT.
Differences include the little kick at the bottom of the leg on _R_ in the image. Stroke width in the image is about the same as Cactus Bold but letter width is narrower.
