I have a friend that would like to make his house numbers from the font samples indicated.

Does anyone know what it could be?

Looks like some variant of Desdemona

Nope. That's an old typeface called Tasmin (Bold, I believe). Unfortunately, the only digital version I'm aware of is called Tango Regular by WSI - a company that made its living selling batches of knockoff fonts to software companies who then bundled them with its software.

Edit: Mike Yanega offers a showing of Tasmin including numerals.

I had the opportunity to speak with the designer directly. (Contact info was on the back of the Calendar.) She told me it was indeed Tango. However, I think she may have thought I was the font usage police. I have been unsuccessful in trying to find a place to purchase Tango, but really the link displaying Tasmin Bold will do very nicely!

Thank you very much!
