Font ID

[John Weekley]

Not sure if there is anything special about this one or not.

Hi John, this is just a hand-drawn version of Common Gothic. No digital version will match it terribly closely, but it could be a good starting point.

I feel like I ask you this every time and the answer is always yes, but can you match this font as outlined or at least match it normal and I can outline it in my design software?

[MLC]

Hi John, yes, I can match any type of lettering you can find–including custom calligraphy–with any kind of outline style.

Are you able to match the curvature of the name?

[MLC]

Yes, I’ll just need to know the distance from the bottom of the first/last letters (both are ‘S’), to the bottom of the highest letter, which looks like it’s the ‘E’ in Schley.

Or a scan of a rubbing of that section of the marker will give me the info I need.
