I guess that should be a LCC 1SP projection with these parameters:
+proj=lcc +lat_1=39.338 +lat_0=39.338 +lon_0=-84 +k_0=1 +x_0=0 +y_0=0
+ellps=GRS80 +towgs84=0,0,0,0,0,0,0 +units=m +no_defs

From the image it is hard to tell what grid line should be right or
wrong. For lon_0=-84, the 84W should be exactly vertical.
Can you share sample coordinates?
