USMC font.

Post by Kings » Sat Jun 03, 2017 4:38 am

Hello all.
Finally I'm going to put the USMC markings back on my 44 MB. I have pics and tracings of the originals but to save time does anyone know the font(s) for the USMC and the numbers (USMC 55309 in my jeeps case). I have access to laser printer to make the stencils and this would save me time. The jeep is a 1944 willys mb.
Thanks

Cool, but he needs to update his stencil page.

These are paint masks, correct, Peter?
