That’s some Caslon, but it was possibly modified for the logo.

I came to the same conclusion. Just couldn’t find a match. If I remember correctly, some Caslon was pretty close but not fat enough.

It’s not exactly the same but Joe Treacy’s TF Caslon 310 Bold has the upturned ear on the ‘g’, and it’s the only Caslon I found with that. If the letters were stretched taller, it would be a decent match, imho.
