(x) What font from 1963 newspaper please? - Monotype Sans Serif Extrabold, based on Kabel {Mark S, Tom L}

whatfontplease

Help needed in identifying the following font from 1963 newspaper.
Thanks

Actually, I think it is an old metal typeface made by Monotype called Sans Serif Extrabold. It's obviously based on Kabel, but has this weight which didn't exist in the original. You can see it on p. 279 of McGrew. I don't think there is a digital version.

As a matter of fact, this is not too far from the mark:


My Kaapeli from MyFonts. 'V' is different, but weight is pretty close.
