Is anyone able to identify what typeface the Sanforized wordmark is based off of? Futura Condensed Italic has some similarities in feel but it's not quite there. The _S_ and _O_ seem somewhat unique. Given the era where Sanforization was popular it's possible there are no digital equivalents. Thoughts?

I agree that finding all the characters in single typeface is unlikely—very likely a custom bit of typography.
Futura Condensed Oblique, with the substitution of the same typeface’s non-condensed |O|, gets you most of the way.
For the |S|, I'd say the one from this typeface is a close match:
