WhatTheFont if you have a scanned image handy, Identifont if you don't.
Based on the text in your picture, I expect that the answer to your underlying question is "a modified form of the typeface Sassoon Bold."

Not so much "modified" as "properly-kerned". To my eye it's unaltered Sassoon Sans Bold.
