This is a really bad resolution picture. But still...can you recognize it? Or suggest something similar?
I'm sorry if this is a silly question, I'm a beginner in this typoworld!
Thank you,
Ana
Can't recall offhand where I have seen this very low crossbar. Probably German early 20th century.
Almost as low and with a similar style, Shango:

Will check some more for a low crossbar on A serif with a lower case.
Perhaps another typophile could make a suggestion.
This design is rare for serifed fonts but is found in some art deco sans. These tend to have a lot of exaggeration in letter shapes. For example Party At Gatsbys by T.W. Jeffery:

Ana - not knowing what, besides the low crossbar, you are after, I'll offer five options ...
The first is Windsor Light (or Light Condensed).
The next two are based on the early twentieth century lettering of Elizabeth Colwell. There is the fanciful McKenna Handletter and even quirkier Colwell.
Next there is Handle Old Style.
And last, with its mini-serifs, is Doug Olena's Elegant.
Mike's reference to Douglas F. Olena's Elegant led me to track down its availability at Linotype
Elegant Open Face

Elegant Inline

Serifs that are mirco -- smaller than mini!-- with one of the lowest crossbars on A that I have seen, and including a fairly conventional lower case.
