    Hello, this is a font called Runestone Condensed, which I’ve most often seen used on Veteran wall projects. The origins are a bit unknown but as far as I am aware it is a Cold Spring specific font. The original Runestone font dates back to at least the 1969 Kensington Runestone monument, which in all likelihood is where it gets its name, but it is uncertain who actually designed the lettering style and when. The Condensed version is believed to have been designed much later.

    Cold Spring does not sell the font directly, nor is it available anywhere else, but for a fee (I’ve been told it is something like $80) they will send you a DXF layout ready for cutting, of text you need to have matched.

    You can also always use the MLC Inscription Matching Service if you’d like help matching this lettering: https://www.monumentletteringcenter.com/product/cemetery-inscription-matching-service/
