Do you have a sample? Or just looking for suggestions?

Thanks I just re-posted with the image, here and in a new post... I was confused about how to embed the file with the sample.

Caslon Antique.

Caslon Antique is a heavily used old 'veteran' . There are plenty of less frequently used distressed old typefaces. Sherwood Types at P22 has a very nice collection of fonts based on old types that might give you a less familiar, but authentic look. You can also search on 'Antique' at sites that allow keyword searches, and find some other ideas.
