    The Baker Signet BT I am often using has some differences with this font. Know if another variation of Baker Signet matches this font?

    This appears to be hand-drawn lettering. In the 1960s there were only a few “fonts” available for reproducing lettering in the form of plastic or metal letters, and at that time they were all memorial industry specific styles. Though it was possible to hand-draw lettering styles based on existing typefaces, fonts like Baker Signet were not used on memorials until sometime in the 1990s as the digital era was underway.
