Old Cast Metal Letter Font

Bobby H

Arial Sucks.
I'm trying to figure out the identity of the typeface of the cast metal letters in the attached photo. It's kind of a dated looking art deco-ish typeface. Sorry for the really small size of the sample image. I've seen the letters in old sign catalogs, but nothing current (at least not in things like the Gemini book). I'm not sure if there is a digital equivalent of it.

I ended up modifying a condensed weight of Resolve Sans to sort of duplicate the look. It's still bugging me that I can't find the identity of that old cast letter typeface. I went through old CASmate fonts and any cast letter catalogs we had and couldn't find a match.
