About
French stencils descend from the bold Didones of 1830s Paris and London and were mostly made by T&C, Paris. France No.1 is the first of three cuts drawn to handle their varying widths and weights, and it keeps the famous 5 whose bobble becomes a breve at small sizes. Braque, Picasso and Le Corbusier all used this lettering.
