Hello all,

I'm looking to identify the typeface on the cover of the first edition of Traven's Weiße Rose (image sourced from the English Wikipedia article about the book). I assume that the Eszett is not a standard glyph and it's also unlikely that the ranges Es is also not present in modern typefaces. My aim is non-commercial, to design some signage for personal use, inspired by the anti-NSDAP organisation of the same name.

That’s a typical and lovely example of old-school lettering made for just one cover. No fonts used, probably not even inspired by existing ones.

Well, it's beautiful, regardless. I should look to see who the publisher was and whether they used that alphabet on anything else. Maybe I, or someone a bit more experienced, would be able to extrapolate a typeface from it
