Book Cover typeface I.D.

Jon Evenchen

Hey all. Sorry about the small image.

I need help identifying this beautifully Nouveau inspired serif face use for a book cover on antiques from the Silverman Collection. An I.D. on this would be great, but any info (such as style, era, designer, year of design) and similar typefaces would also be greatly appreciated.

Thanks very much,
jeo324.

Hi, It seems to be a modified Benguiat. The swashes and ligatures are not in the typeface normally.

thanks a bunch!
