Designed by Jeff Levine, Eutaw Stencil JNL is a stencil font family. This typeface has two styles and was published by Jeff Levine Fonts.


A hand lettered emulation of a Roman stencil type face on the cover of the folio for the Stenso School Set was the basis for Eutaw Stencil JNL, which is available in both regular and oblique versions.

The Stenso School Set (circa 1940-41) was comprised of three stencils – two lettering guides and a map of the [then] 48 United States. 

Developed and patented by Baltimore school teacher Ruth Libauer Hormats, her stencils were the first to offer a system for accurate letter spacing and ease of use. 

“Eutaw” (as part of the font’s name) is taken from Eutaw Place, the street where Ruth and her husband lived at the time of Stenso’s inception.  To the Cherokee, the name means “Creek Indian”.

Designed by Jeff Levine, Hippie Comics JNL is a hand display and novelty font family. This typeface has two styles and was published by Jeff Levine Fonts.

This novelty typeface is now available as Hippie Comics JNL in both regular and oblique versions.
