1917 Stencil was published by GLC. 1917 Stencil contains 2 styles and family package options.
We have created this family inspired by the old-fashioned stencil letters like those the French army used during the WWI to write on soldiers’ clothes, blankets, signals, ammunition, supplies and so on.
This is a Didone-style font.
We offer two variants for the same font: monospaced or proportionally spaced. Our Open Type specification allows automatic substitution of letters to avoid repeating the same glyph when a letter is repeated (for example “ee” or “bb”)(Not available with accented characters and a few others like “Q” that are never repeated in common use).
