I was totally off track.
It’s Caslon, probably from Adobe.

I think it’s Adobe Caslon Semibold. Since it’s all caps the SC doesn’t matter much.

Whoa, hold it right there, pardner: SC’s (real ones) are different glyphs than caps — mostly somewhat darker in color and a little broader. Mixing them up is a no-no for a real typo-cowboy.

Howdy Bert.

I know what small caps are.
It’s just that the sample is set in ALL CAPS.
And the REAL CAPS are the same in SC and Regular.
So it doesn’t matter if it’s SC or regular lower case.

Alright, pardner?

No offence meant, pardner – how about a drink in the saloon?
