Hi Shaun,

that’s Interstate Bold Condensed.
The script is similar to House Industries’ Sign Painter Fonts – though that’s not a cigar; I have to leave that to the pros.

Thank you very much for this information, how on earth did you figure that out?

Could you please also tell me if there are any fonts that are similar or identical that I may download for free?

Search for “Blue Highway” from Ray Larabie for a some kind of “Interstate-ish” font.

Interstate has some pretty distinctive characteristics, like the diagonal terminals in ‘C’ & ‘S’, the leg of the ‘R’ – and even the apostrophe stands out. Have a look: How does everyone identify typefaces?

You can have House Slant (+ 2 other beauties) for free. And you can read about the value of type.
