(x) Midcentury Font from Eichler Brochure / wide grotesque - various suggestions {gang}

Katie Peek

Can anyone tell me what the title font is on this 1950s Eichler brochure? Or something similar. Century Gothic is close but not quite right.

I'm looking to use something similar in a poster that I'm gonna do up with a vintage electronics look.

This is close, but the R is wrong.

You might like Blair.

Akzidenz Grotesk BQ extended is close, too, but the C is wrong. And again, the R.

Hey, I already own Blair! I'll go with that for now, but other suggestions are welcome, you know, for posterity.

Now, if anyone can tell me where to get a housedress like that...
