Hi everyone,

Can anybody help me to find this font ?
It's used in the humor magazine Die Muskete (between 1914 and 1917).

Thanks in advance !

E is slightly different in each case - hand lettered - art not font.

Art Nouveau and hand-lettered as already said by Bob. Reminds me of loosely Hobo.
Alternatives: Brillant, Herold, Marshall, Roberta, Edelgotish

Ryuk, thanks for the well chosen collection of digital fonts with various similarities to the letters. Another: Metropolitaines http://www.myfonts.com/fonts/linotype/metropolitaines/
I wonder if the title lettering artist ever produced anymore lettering in this style?
Otto Eckmann?
Note the caption which is similar to his eponymous font
