Typeface notes:
Two typefaces called Stencil were released in 1937 within a month of each other; this one was designed by Gerry Powell for American Type Founders. The characters are designed to emulate the look of bold, cut-out stencil letters. Use this typeface to command attention on signage, and for special effects.
