I suspect the sign is based on hand lettered alphabets.
The top line is a rendition of Frank Atkinson's Tuscan Roman, as shown in his book in his book Sign Painting, A Complete Manual. Fontry West used the same source to create a font. It is wider and has a less pronounced loop in the cross stroke of _A_
Carattere suggerito: Tuscan Roman

The bottom two lines of lettering are a common split tail terminal design called Tuscan or fishtail.
Partial match with Figgins Tuscan
Carattere suggerito: Figgins Tuscan

Primer is a fair match for the bottom two lines, particularly if it is made heavier and compressed

The style of Tuscan used in the bottom two lines of lettering matches the one in Michel Bujardet's Bujardet Freres font
Around 1900 it was even used to make words and phrases for use as rubber stamps. For back of photographs, passports etc.
Carattere suggerito: Bujardet Freres
