MLCKeymasterThis is a font named Casualee Cursive. As far as I am aware it is currently only available in Gerber Omega.
MLCKeymasterHi Chris, this is a font named Bold Roman, or Roman Bold. There are many versions, some of them outlined. This looks like one of two versions that are available in the Gerber Omega software, but the letters and numbers have been manually condensed. The punctuation appears to be untouched.
The MLC has a version of the font available, but there may be subtle differences including a slight difference in the weight of the font, which would need to be made slightly bolder with a stroke/outline added. Here’s a link to the font in the shop: MLC Signature Series Roman Bold
MLCKeymasterHi John, this is Times New Roman.
MLCKeymasterHello, I believe this is a font in Monu-Cad called Fatbar Modified. I don’t think it comes standard with the software and may be custom.
MLCKeymasterHi Richard, this is a font usually called Bold Roman or Roman Bold. There are many versions of it, with or without an outline.
This looks like one of the two versions available in Gerber.
There is also a version similar to this in the MLC font shop, here: https://www.monumentletteringcenter.com/product/mlc-signature-series-roman-bold-outline/
MLCKeymasterHello, I’m not positive of the specific version of Modified Roman this is, but it does appear to be very similar to the Monu-Cad “Press Modified Roman”, with a different comma and ampersand.
It’s possible this is a custom version of the font.
MLCKeymasterHello, I believe this is all custom lettering that has been hand drawn. Most characters are very close, but each ‘R’ seems to be slightly different.
MLCKeymasterHello, this is Helvetica.
MLCKeymasterHello Chris, this is hand-drawn lettering. Inspired by the Art Deco movement, the style was introduced to the memorial industry in the late 1920s. Never becoming wildly popular it did see a slight resurgence in the 1960s and 70s with some Barre Guild firms.
It will need to be custom matched. If you would like help, feel free to use the MLC Inscription Matching Service.
MLCKeymasterHello Marc, this is a version of a font named ITC Novarese.
MLCKeymasterHi Lance, this is an American Institute of Commemorative Art member font named AICA-25 and was originally designed as a blueprint alphabet in the 1970s. Since then, it has been digitized by several of its members–though I’ve never seen a version of it used with this borrowed block-font punctuation before.
If you’d like help matching it, feel free to use the MLC Inscription Matching Service, or reach out to your closest AICA member.
MLCKeymasterHi Joshua, unfortunately, this lettering is all hand-drawn and will need to be custom matched.
If you don’t want to take care of it yourself, feel free to use the MLC Inscription Matching Service.
MLCKeymasterHello, this appears to be a digital version of the plastic ScotchKut Double Outline stencil press alphabet. The original alphabets changed significantly at different sizes, while the lettering on this memorial has the same design no matter the size.
It looks like a set of the larger alphabet was used to create this font.
The MLC has fonts available to match the alphabet in all sizes. Fonts matching the medium and large sizes are available here, and a font to match the smallest sizes of the alphabet is available here.
MLCKeymasterHi John, I believe this is a version of Times New Roman that is available only in the Gerber Omega software. It has bolder serifs and is more condensed than other versions of the font.
MLCKeymasterHello, unfortunately I know very little about this font, other than that I’ve been told the name is “Old English Fancy”.
I believe it is a monument industry-specific font, but I have never seen it available in any industry software font catalogs.
