Might be obvious, but have you just tried a Jenson bold or semi-bold?
You might also try Centar...

Woah, most of those suggestions had nothing to do with the question, those answers are nothing like janson.
gravityroom was the first person to answer with a similar face. Centaur is an option, it is a "harder" cut with more emphasis on the serifs.
Also try Janson, Garamond (yes, common, but very close), Granjon, Baskerville (this is different in weight distribution, but much more "traditional" face than its daughter, mrs. eaves).

Love the roscoe photo...
Eddy - I know - I'm always amazed at how many designers think typography is just finding a cool font.
For what its worth... Mrs. Eaves is starting to get a tad trendy...
