What is the font?

Question

I already tried to use Detexify but the closest suggestion was \mathfrak{Y}. I'm sure that it is not the case.

Does anybody have idea how to produce the letter used for the space cited on the image?

@DavidCarlisle, unfortunately it is a scanned Fox's paper from JSTOR. No info about the fonts. — Sigur, Feb 03 '15 at 23:43
@Sigur It looks like a \mathfrak{Y}, for instance from esstix fonts (see mathalfa). — Manuel, Feb 03 '15 at 23:46
@Manuel, thanks. I guess that you are right. The page 5 from the documentation has the glyph. Please, feel free to post an answer with screen shot (I can edit and insert it if you wish). — Sigur, Feb 03 '15 at 23:50
Sigur, just out of interest, would you post the link to the JSTOR page? — A. Donda, Feb 04 '15 at 02:29
@A.Donda, here is the file http://www.jstor.org/stable/1969292 — Sigur, Feb 04 '15 at 09:35

Unfortunately I can not use the mathpi font. But esstix is very close. – Sigur Feb 03 '15 at 23:59

You can as well use the yfonts package, following @egreg's answer here.

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{yfonts}
\begin{document}
    \textfrak{Y}
\end{document}
