Looking for this typeface in this Conveyors Safety Code document

Followers

I saw this in this pdf. (p.2) https://law.resource.org/pub/us/cfr/ibr/002/ansi.b20.1.1957.pdf

I suppose it has something to do with some kind of extended grotesk font, but I can't figure out which one is exactly. I tried Akzidenzk Grotesk but the counter of the letter R is narrower and the aperture of C is tighter and some other minor differences.

Does anyone know what font is this?

As always, I appreciate your help!

Solution

Venus Extrabold Extended is very close too, but not.

Given the age and quality of the sample, it’s unlikely to find an exact digital match.

Anyway, I think @Ignacio is right in pointing to Venus (AKA Annonce or Aurora Grotesk). Here are a couple revivals of this style:
