Looking for the font of this city name (Bliesgau)

Hello everyone,

I am looking for the font of this City, which I found from a magazine (undated). I need a free alternative if possible. Thanks everyone.

It being cast in metal, I doubt it ever was a printing typeface.

For something similar in concept, you could want to have a look at Bodoni Z37 (not free, but cheap, and you can also mix different widths to mimic the wide capital of your sample).

the font posted is non-existent?

Better put, it isn’t a font. Probably no other letter was made except for the ones needed to spell “Bliesgau”.
