I assume someone used a graphics program to make the outlined version.
Yeah, as well as those straight serifs, sometimes in combo with the curvy ones. Like that dad gummed K…
First, I completely forgot to, and really need to thank both Hondo5834 and akira1975 for their answers to my last request, which were just right and helpful. Now, the latest candidates from my historical reverie. From a well-known economy QSL card style, sold through an amaterur radio magazine. These were seen in the late 1970s. See

https://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/OC0AAOSwiXtm~J5E/s-l1600.webp for a couple of in situ examples. At first blush it seems to be from Bodoni world, but it is actually almost entirely unlike that. Pointers? Thanks, and a fine evening to one and all.
As for VANITY FAIR, it is based on VF Didot. See the article in the link. The magazine nameplate has apparently been revised from VF Didot over time, to what appears in your sample. The original VF Didot was released as Le Jeune in 2016. See

Corrections to this attempted explanation are welcome.

The sans-serif lines are likely VF Sans. Don't know what you have available, but you might be able to fake these with Futura (STARTING SOON and LIVE), and Intervogue (OSCAR PARTY).

I think it is Mouse Memoir, but your sample looks condensed vertically.

Inspired by Old Style 1 from the 1935 Linotype catalog.
Looks like Bookman Old Style, with some horizontal compression applied to it.
