Match Font - Any alternative to find a specific typography?

Please excuse me if this question is not relevant to this forum.

I have been using Photoshop's Match Font feature to find similar fonts to reference images, but I'm struggling to find a specific typography style similar to the one in the attached image. This style is often seen in tin-type photography and video games such as Red Dead Redemption.

I would greatly appreciate any insights or suggestions from fellow designers on how I can locate this type of typography.

Thank you in advance for your help.

That is not a font - tin type text was hand written. Try looking for a handwriting font that meets your needs. You can also try other sites like whatthefont or dafont to search by images of the text.

Hi Kevin,
Yeah, I thought it was handwritten. Probably it's quicker to draw handwriting texts by myself. 
Thanks for your reply, anyway.
