Stencil refers to two typefaces released within months of each other in 1937. The face created by R. Hunter Middleton for Ludlow was advertised in June, while 's version for American Type Founders appeared one month later. Both fonts consist of only capital letters with rounded edges and thick main strokes, much like a Clarendon typeface, except with breaks in the face to give it the appearance of the stenciled alphabets used on boxes and crates. Powell's exploration of Stencil became very popular over time and is still used today.

  • Stencil is een schreeflettertype-familie ontworpen door Gerry Powell, Robert Hunter Middleton en Alexei Chekulaev. Twee soorten van het lettertype werden binnen een maand na elkaar uitgebracht in 1937, waarvan één ontworpen voor American Type Founders (ATF), daar bekend onder de naam Stencil Bold. In 1997 bracht Alexei Chekulaev een Cyrillische tekenset van het lettertype uit, genaamd Stencil Cyrillic Regular. (nl)

  • Stencil is een schreeflettertype-familie ontworpen door Gerry Powell, Robert Hunter Middleton en Alexei Chekulaev. Twee soorten van het lettertype werden binnen een maand na elkaar uitgebracht in 1937, waarvan één ontworpen voor American Type Founders (ATF), daar bekend onder de naam Stencil Bold. In 1997 bracht Alexei Chekulaev een Cyrillische tekenset van het lettertype uit, genaamd Stencil Cyrillic Regular. De tekenset kent geen kleine letters (onderkast). Het lettertype kenmerkt zich duidelijk door de losstaande lettercomponenten met gehoekte uiteinden en heel dikke stammen.Toch is in het lettertype voorbeeldboek "Rookledge's Classic International Typefinder" de Stencil Bold (575) aanwezig met kleine letters, hoewel niet leverbaar door commerciële letteruitgeverijen. Men ziet nog steeds deze letter vaak op dozen en kratten, alsof het met een sjabloon erop gespoten is.Stencil wordt ook gewoonlijk gebruikt bij krijgsmachtachtige beeltenissen, bijvoorbeeld bij de tv-series M*A*S*H en The A-Team.
