This is from a book by Peter Rosegger, I'd expected it would have been printed in Blackletter, but no - any idea about the typeface?

Looks Bernhard but I can’t find a match.

This is the regular cut of Alt-Mediaeval. Cut in 1915 by M. Hertwig for Berthold.

Thank you.

Was this typeface widely used?
