On the memorial stone for the Franck Oak, the name appears in raised sans-serif capitals carved from the stone, with „Gepflantzt von der Stadtgemeinde 1872“ below in mixed case. The letters stand out far from the background; the second line in particular, which is noticeably smaller and slimmer, looks delicate as a result and has already chipped away in some places. The capitals are narrow but boxy in shape; F and E have a strikingly short middle bar.

The tree and its memorial stone are dedicated to Moritz Ritter von Franck, former mayor of Graz and founder of the Stadtpark.
