Looking for the font from this book cover of "Giovanna D'Arco" from 1962

I am trying to identify the font "MAESTRI" (maestro) is set in.

This comes from the cover of an Italian version of Joan of Arc (Giovanna D'Arco) written by Hilaire Belloc and published by Edizioni Paoline in 1962.

I am looking for a digital version. Commercial fonts are fine. If possible a free alternative would be great, thanks.

Not a typeface.

Not helpful.

A suggestion for an alternative or something in the ballpark would be welcome.

Similar contrast and shape of |A|: Priamos.

If you enjoy the squareness of that ‘S’, you might like Nickel.
