AFAIK this is not a font. Note in particular that the _M_ looks like it has different roots than the other letters, which can be approximated by individual letters from various metal type era formal scripts. So far, I have not found a font that contains all of the lower case letters.

Maison 140 is the logo and exterior signage letters for former home of silent film stars Dorothy and Lillian Gish, re-purposed as a boutique Beverly Hills hotel with interior design by Kelly Wearstler Interior Design. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kelly_Wearstler
Perhaps she, or the current owners of the hotel, would be able to say what, if any, fonts were the inspiration for the various letters in _Maison_.

AFAIK Casady & Greene's Kells [1988] predates Gandalf and Stonehenge.
All are essentially the same.

Perhaps derived from Gandalf

So far no match to any of the usual suspects.
Has a retro look like embossed lettering on an old book cover.
Has anyone else found it?

Previous discussions have suggested that this is a proprietary font derived from
ITC Stone Sans SemiBold, which is similar but not identical to the letters in the image. Larger scale image:

Custom, but resembles the heavier weights of ITC Souvenir when manually compressed

21/12/2016 às 17:33  [resposta]  Similar is OK. Main title font.

Similar _r_

Two points.
1. Lettering on book covers in the early decades of the 20th century, and before, were custom designs by lettering artists and usually did not reference a specific font.
2. The letter forms in this book cover reflect the lettering styles of the 1890s and 1900s rather than the 1930s. Perhaps this is a reprint?
The letters in the title are a pastiche of different styles. Creating something similar would require the excerpting of letters from various sources and editing to harmonize weight etc.
For _a_, _h_, _m_ and _s_ Verona TS Extralight is in the ballpark.

Ravel might be closer -- it has the same brush stroke style for _u_ and _m_, but is far from identical.

Fonte sugerida: Ravel



Santeli Light is the closest I found so far, but it is not identical.

So far I have not found a single font has this particular combination of wide and narrow letters.
Yasashii Hairline Bold has similar _O_, _B_, _S_ and the top loop of _R_.

Here are the boxy Art Deco letters, that I extracted from a photograph of the facade of the Bloomingdale’s NYC building, completed in 1930. I applied some perspective correction and packed them together so that the width of this image would not be unweildy.



Love the sassy _S_.

Seems like a DIY project to duplicate the letters.

Dremie is a good suggestion.
Anchor Jack would also work as a substitute, particularly if the curves were given boxy corners.
AFAIK there is no font that closely matches the BLOOMINGDALE'S sign.

Custom lettering in a Spenserian style.

18/12/2016 às 22:13  [resposta]  Font of "GERALDINE"??

A modification of a 19th century design called Egyptian.
Note the filled in terminals with a single serif on _G_, _S_ and the top of _C_, found in some fonts such as Alfa Slab One, which is a free Google Web Font.
Similar, but not a match.
To make a substitute for GERALDINE you could modify Girga -- suggested by APlaPi -- to have similar filled in terminals for _G_, _S_ and the top of _C_, and modify the bottom terminal of _C_

Fonte sugerida: Alfa Slab One

Difficult to say for certain at this scale, but Tall Abbey seems very close, or perhaps a match.
