I can tell you how the stand was made. I made it for him.
Printed black sticker that runs the length of the groove on the stand. Font is MS Gothic but since there isn't an italic verision of the font, I had to shear it in Illustrator to make it italic and then there was some fine tweaking on certain letters that got a little disproportionate from the shearing.
I know other people have used Arial Thin Italic or Helvetica Thin Italic but if you go that route the letters need to be stretched just a bit to match the original stand lettering.
I have a template created in illustrator for creating the name plate strip for stands, if people are interested.
