Yes, it appears to be custom.

 

Domaine Sans could be manipulated to emulate it. Charter Oak has a similar vibe.

Vette Cursief Antieke is a typeface similar to Charter Oak that was issued in the Netherlands in 1950. Given the place and time (Rotterdam 1953), I can image that the artist was inspired by it. The typeface was known as Old Gothic Bold Italic in English.

The a and b of Vette Cursief Antieke are spot-on. Well spotted, Florian.
