I'm helping a friend who works for this recycling company. He's trying to make additional (terrible) signs for them that match... thanks for any help... I tried a font ID site where you upload the picture, but since it's at an angle I didn't have any luck....

Not an exact match, but very close to Antique Olive Compact.

Antique Olive Nord?

edit: The c, at least, seems closer in Nord than in Compact. It would need squooshing, but maybe that's because of the angle of the wall?
