Would like some help to identify this Latin/flared serif. Thanks in advance.
I already identified some similars but far from convincing: Copperplate Gothic, Aviano Serif, Blog, President, Lehman...

I thought I had this but I'm afraid Ikarus is just another look-a-like.

Sorry, Fritz Quadrata http://new.myfonts.com/fonts/urw/friz-quadrata/

Sorry but it doesn't look like Friz Quadrata at all.

My hunch is that’s a customised Copperplate (or even Sackers/Engravers) Gothic.
As a starting point, both Sweet Gothic Serif and ITC Symbol have a more similar G, but the first has more contrast, while the other isn’t as wide.

Thanks a lot everybody for these suggestions. Sweet Gothic is, indeed, very close, slightly more contrasted. ITC Symbol has this classy feeling I always like, though not enough wide as. Anyway, that are 2 very good similars.
