It appears to be an old metal typeface offered by Lanston Monotype
known as Title Litho Shaded (#246) aka Litho Roman Shaded.

Perhaps someone digitized it for their personal use. Or maybe they are
still using metal type! Quaker City Type Foundry provides metal type
fonts of it under the name Litho Shaded.
