The cover on the sheet music for the 1922 song “If She Comes from Dixie” had the title hand-lettered in an Art Nouveau style with a semi-stencil effect. It’s now available as Nouveau Semi Stencil JNL in both regular and oblique versions.

The typeface is not considered a “pure” stencil because many of the letters were made solid; lacking the classic stencil “breaks” at key points found in more traditional stencil designs.
