Can anyone please tell me what font the red type resembles?

And in the next example, what this could be? Also, do you know of any foundary that specializes in this type of font?

Thanks,

Tal

Modesto from Parkinson Type Design bears a resemblance:

Pacific Coast is awfully similar to Roman Script.

werent most of these posters hand rendered?

Yes. But some of the lettering was modeled after typefaces and some typefaces were modeled after lettering styles, so it's often possible to find relatively similar fonts.
