Hello, this is the Chapel font, currently available only in Cochran’s Monumental Designer software.
If you would like help matching it, feel free to use the MLC Inscription Matching Service.
Hello, this looks like it is custom lettering, as the duplicate characters (9, t, s, etc.) all have quite a bit of variance.
If you would like help matching it for an inscription, feel free to use the MLC Inscription Matching Service.
Hello, this looks like hand-cut Spacerite Modified Roman lettering. There is a version in the MLC font shop, though it may need some modification in order to match the size of the serifs on the lettering in the photo.
Hello, this is possibly the Gerber version of Zapf Chancery Bold that has been manually condensed, as the Gerber version has the features on numbers you mentioned. However, in the Gerber version the numbers are non-lining, so this may be a different version unknown to me, likely from a sign-making software.
Yes, this is not something currently available in the MLC Font Shop. You’ll need to visit the CGX Monument Shop website: https://cgxmonumentshop.com/
Hello, this is a font in the Monu-Cad software named Classic Roman 2. It is also available in Gerber format from CGX Monument Shop under the name Classic Roman JP-SO.
I have seen this version before but unfortunately I am not aware of what software it comes from. The closest version I am aware of is the Monu-Cad Bold Roman 1 font, but there are some obvious differences, though the numeral 2 is very condensed like this.
No, unfortunately not. This is a common print industry font and a bit outside of the scope of the MLC monument font project, but it can be purchased from several online font retailers.
Hi Chris, this is the ScotchKut Double Outline at the medium sizes, with the second outline removed and a custom ampersand. Based on the date it is likely that the actual plastic letters were used and the ampersand drawn by hand, or it the memorial was made much later in the late 1980s or 1990s, it is possible that this was a digital version.
The MLC has a version of the of the font available which has been bundled with a second font matching the plastic alphabets at the large sizes as well, here: https://www.monumentletteringcenter.com/product/mlc-scotchkut-double-outline-medium-large/
Hello, this is likely one of the versions of Palatino available in the Gerber Omega software. It does look like it has been manually condensed. There is also a print industry TTF version available named Palatino BQ.
