Our EAA Chapter is restoring a pre-war J-5 and have decided they would like to paint the registration numbers on the wings as they would have originally appeared using the NC registration number on the bottom of the left wing and top of the right. We are having some difficulty finding the size of the font originally used on aircraft of that size and vintage. As best I can recall, I believe they were painted on the wings with a 24" font, but can't cite any source as proof. The current international standard is 50 cm (19.6"), but we are looking to display the numbers as originally marked.

Thanks for any assistance.
