Placard might be pretty

Placard might be pretty close in a digital type for “STARLIGHTERS” (I say that because I believe this was pre-digital). The script (Marvin Berry) is harder to match, but there are a number of fonts in Part 7 of my Script Font ID Guide that are possibly close enough. I looked mainly for the M and B, then for a similar ’r’ style. Closest choices to me were: Sarah Script, Swingdancer, Snapper Script, and Nitro DNA (if you stretch it vertically).

Could anybody please identify the fonts used in this logo or direct me to similar ones?
