Another mystery

WhatTheFont doesn't even see the "R" as an "R", but rather a "B". Any ideas? see the "tail" actually turns upward

It's in the family of Bodoni Bd BT

My version is a tad different but just a tad. Could be the difference between the real Bondoni and a knock off.

It looks like Didot with the stroke applied. It is too thick for a regular Didot font.

Thanks,
I went with a Bodini initially, but would have had to tweak the tail. I'll look at the Century and Didot (btw, I've always liked the Didot sample in the Emenem' Stan) lol!
