Walter:

google:
what is the font of an image
https://www.google.com/search?&q=what+is+the+font+of+an+image

Gave several options.  I picked:

https://www.whatfontis.com/

I cut the example image down to just the text.

I gave the image to that website and it picked the word
'Superm\"{a}rkte' so I went with that.  (I should have avoided the
umlaut.)

I identified the letters: 'suoerma'.

It said: "Here are the first 60 fonts (57 commercial and 3 free fonts)
matching the image you uploaded."

1. Magdelin Black otf
2. Magdelin Alt Black otf

which are pretty close.
