They have the standard old headstone shape, often topped by winged skulls. I found them captivating to the point of typeface design. There's a cemetery in Castine, Mainea lovely coastal town perhaps best known for Maine Maritime Academy and a surviving crop of stately old American elmswith headstones dating back into the 18th century. Thanks to a friend, I got my hands on a couple of rubbings that show a particular style of stonecarving that popular in New England at the time. Castine has both roman and italic styles, each with numerous historical ligatures, old-style and lining figures, Central/Eastern European alphabets, and a winged skull.
