I think the roman is Bembo but not sure which version. When is the sample from?

The italic looks like a Garamond, but again I'm not sure which one.

Monotype Garamond, metal, I think.

Yes, that's why I asked for the source of the sample, it looks pre-digital.

Both the roman and italic seem to be an exact match for Monotype Garamond in my Jaspert Encyclopedia of typefaces, 1970. It has little photo type. So, yes, pre-digital and pre-photo. Boy, will I be surprised if it's not metal.
