Script Bold, originally published by Monotype Corporation in 1931.
The Cincinnati Reds Wordmark Logo uses a clean and precisely engineered version that matches the Monotype digitization
Swash is a custom addition.

URW's Charter Oak is a digital version
Charter Oak was originally produced by the Keystone Type Foundry, which operated in Philadelphia from 1888-1917.
Charter Oak is shown on in their 1906 specimen book https://archive.org/details/abridgedspecimen00keysrich at pages 143 to 145.
As you note the font was popular for bus signage in the 1960s.

Chevalier is offered by Letter Perfect in a sightly narrower version that seems the best match of the suggestions so far for the proportions of the solid DOMAINE DES NUGUES letters.
In its present form -- with stripes -- Chevalier LP is NOT THE FONT.

Suggested font: Chevalier  (Already suggested here)

This looks like a sold version of the corporate wine label.
Compare to:

which seems to use Chevalier
Medoc and Copperhead Condensed, while not an exact match for a solid Chevalier, are close substitutes.
In its present form -- with stripes -- Chevalier is NOT THE FONT.

Old English Regular, the name Monotype used for a design different from others with similar names such as "Old English", "Old English Engraved" etc.

Suggested font: Old English Regular

Looks like a butchered version of the design used in English Town, which is a free version at Dafont of Old English Regular.

Suggested font: English Towne

Have not found a font that is a close match to this English style textura.
For a very approximate substitute you could use Amador, especially for the lower case.

Suggested font: Amador

A little on the light side and lacks the angled crossbars on _A_ and _H_.
Use two letters _V_ overlapped for _W_.

Suggested font: Air Corps

Diploma lettering in the blackletter style seems to have developed from old engraved diplomas.
Not much in the way of matching fonts.
Inland Type Foundry had a font circa 1900 that was someahat similar under the name Shaw Text

No digital available for purchase or download.

That's it The _C_ [Cyrillic _S_] is indeed lifted from De Vinne [aka Denver] with a custom highlight.
The other letters could perhaps match a Didone or Bodoni from Paratype or Parachute, using a Latin _K_.

Looks squeezed in width.
When width is doubled, it looks like:

A small cove serif Didone or Bodoni with an unusal _C_ [Cyrillic _S_].
But I still can't place it
