Download Now Server 1 Download Now Server 3 Download Now Server 2 A set of oil board stencils from Great Britain (probably from the 1950s) was the model for Sussex Semi Stencil JNL, which is available in both regular and oblique versions. Because many of the characters are ‘solid’ rather than containing the breaks [known as ‘islands’] of a traditional stencil letter, this is why the type design was given the ‘semi stencil’ designation.

Download Bookkeeper JNL Font Family From Jeff Levine

Download Now Server 1 Download Now Server 3 Download Now Server 2 Bookkeeper JNL is based on the lighter weight version of R. Hunter Middleton’s ‘Karnak’, produced in 1936 for Ludlow. “Karnak” itself was based on the geometric slab-serif “Memphis”, designed in 1929 by Dr. Rudolf Wolf and released originally by the Stempel Type Foundry of Germany. According to Wikipedia, “Karnak” "was named after the Karnak Temple Complex in Egypt, in reference to the fact that early slab serifs were often called “Egyptians” as an exoticism by nineteenth-century type founders." Available in both regular and oblique versions, Bookkeeper JNL serves well as both a headline and text type face.
